Hello. I need an answer within about 1 hour. I have to process strings
that may sometimes (but not always) be double UrlEncoded. Therefore, I
must have logic that tells me when to sometimes apply an extra
UrlDecode. If I always apply the extra UrlDecode (i.e., apply it when
the string has not been double UrlEncoded), some chars are dropped
("+" becomes a space char). What I am looking for is an existing
ASP.NET method, OR new code in C# to create such a method, that will
efficiently tell me when to apply the extra UrlDecode. (I hope to
avoid a brute force search of the strings for certain chars.) Thanks!

Hi there,

It seems that this same problem (or a similar one) is being discussed
in this thread:

Let me know if that resolves your problem, or if you are dealing with
a different issue.

Thanks,

Hi. The issue being discussed in thread:
http://groups.google.ca/groups?hl=en&lr=&threadm=OAQbL4JhCHA.1392%40tkmsftngp12&rnum=1&prev=/groups%3Fhl%3Den%26lr%3D%26q%3Dasp.net%2Bdouble%2Burldecode

is similar in regard to UrlDecode, but I am not working with SOAP. 

I am working with System.String objects and I need a way to determine
if the string requires an extra call to UrlDecode.

So I am still seeking an answer here. Thanks.
