how to use decodeURIComponent in asp?

Question

From my javascript i try to post data to my asp page using encodeURIComponent

var dd = encodeURIComponent(document.getElementById("Remarks").innerHTML);

How i decode my encodeURIComponent in asp page using vbscript?

hoping your support

Solution 1

i think you mean you want to decode the URI component in the vb.net code behind and not vb script.

the thing here is you don't have to it...Request.Querystring("query_string_variable") automatically does it for you.

if you explicitly want to do it you can use

HttpUtility.UrlDecode() in .net

if you want to do it in VBscript , see the answer by Valerio

Solution 2

I guess you need this: Classic ASP URLDecoder function using decodeURIComponent

<%
FUNCTION URLDecoder(str)
'// This function:
'// - decodes any utf-8 encoded characters into unicode characters eg. (%C3%A5 = å)
'// - replaces any plus sign separators with a space character
'//
'// IMPORTANT:
'// Your webpage must use the UTF-8 character set. Easiest method is to use this META tag:
'// <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
'//
    Dim objScript
    Set objScript = Server.CreateObject("ScriptControl")
    objScript.Language = "JavaScript"
    URLDecoder = objScript.Eval("decodeURIComponent(""" & str & """.replace(/\+/g,"" ""))")
    Set objScript = NOTHING
END FUNCTION
%>
