Question

I use regular XmlHttlRequest, everything work fine except the unicode.
How can i set that the query string will support unicode, (right now it return to c# ‘??????’ when i pass unicode character (Hebrew)). I’ve tried to set the globalization setting to UTF-16 or Unicode in the web.config like this:

But it still pass ‘????’.

I attach pic of my code although its a XmlHttpRequest regular code like everyone know.

Thank you!

XMLHttpRequest won’t modify URLs (other than removing invalid characters), you have to build the correct URL yourself. That’s what encodeURIComponent function is good for:

xmlRequest.open("GET", "foo.apx?name=" + encodeURIComponent(name));
