Question

Using the following code I get a nice formatted string:

Request.QueryString.ToString  

Gives me something like: &hello=world&microsoft=sucks

But when I use this code to clone the collection to another object (of the same type) I get the Type() back from the ToString() method instead.

System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection variables = new System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection(Request.QueryString); if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(variables['sid']))     variables.Remove('sid'); Response.Write(variables.ToString()); 

Is there a tidier way to output it rather than looking and building the string manually?

Answer 1

You can also use Reflector to extract the HttpValueCollection class into your own, and use it then.
