How do I replace all the spaces with in C#?

问题:

I want to make a string into a URL using C#. There must be something in the .NET framework that should help, right?

回答1:

I believe you're looking for HttpServerUtility.UrlEncode.

System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlEncode(string url)

回答2:

Another way of doing this is using Uri.EscapeUriString(stringToEscape).

回答3:

I found useful System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode(string str);

It replaces spaces with %20 and not with +.

回答4:

To properly escape spaces as well as the rest of the special characters, use System.Uri.EscapeDataString(string stringToEscape).

回答5:

As commented on the approved story, the HttpServerUtility.UrlEncode method replaces spaces with + instead of %20. Use one of these two methods instead: Uri.EscapeUriString() or Uri.EscapeDataString()

Sample code:

HttpUtility.UrlEncode("https://mywebsite.com/api/get me this file.jpg")
//"https%3a%2f%2fmywebsite.com%2fapi%2fget+me+this+file.jpg"

Uri.EscapeUriString("https://mywebsite.com/api/get me this file.jpg");
//"https://mywebsite.com/api/get%20me%20this%20file.jpg"
Uri.EscapeDataString("https://mywebsite.com/api/get me this file.jpg");
//"https%3A%2F%2Fmywebsite.com%2Fapi%2Fget%20me%20this%20file.jpg"

//When your url has a query string:
Uri.EscapeUriString("https://mywebsite.com/api/get?id=123&name=get me this file.jpg");
//"https://mywebsite.com/api/get?id=123&name=get%20me%20this%20file.jpg"
Uri.EscapeDataString("https://mywebsite.com/api/get?id=123&name=get me this file.jpg");

//"https%3A%2F%2Fmywebsite.com%2Fapi%2Fget%3Fid%3D123%26name%3Dget%20me%20this%20file.jpg"

Use HttpServerUtility.UrlEncode

回答7:

I needed to do this too, found this question from years ago but question title and text don't quite match up, and using Uri.EscapeDataString or UrlEncode (don't use that one please!) doesn't usually make sense unless we are talking about passing URLs as parameters to other URLs.

(For example, passing a callback URL when doing open ID authentication, Azure AD, etc.)

Hoping this is more pragmatic answer to the question: I want to make a string into a URL using C#, there must be something in the .NET framework that should help, right?

Yes - two functions are helpful for making URL strings in C#

• String.Format for formatting the URL
• Uri.EscapeDataString for escaping any parameters in the URL

This code

String.Format("https://site/app/?q={0}&redirectUrl={1}", 
  Uri.EscapeDataString("search for cats"), 
  Uri.EscapeDataString("https://mysite/myapp/?state=from idp"))

produces this result

https://site/app/?q=search%20for%20cats&redirectUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fmysite%2Fmyapp

Which can be safely copied and pasted into a browser's address bar, or the src attribute of a HTML A tag, or used with curl, or encoded into a QR code, etc.

HttpUtility.UrlEncode Method (String)

回答9:

The below code will replace repeating space with a single %20 character.

Example:

Input is:

Code by Hitesh             Jain

Output:

Code%20by%20Hitesh%20Jain

Code

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Enter a string");
    string str = Console.ReadLine();
    string replacedStr = null;

    // This loop will repalce all repeat black space in single space
    for (int i = 0; i < str.Length - 1; i++)
    {
        if (!(Convert.ToString(str[i]) == " " &&
            Convert.ToString(str[i + 1]) == " "))
        {
            replacedStr = replacedStr + str[i];
        }
    }
    replacedStr = replacedStr + str[str.Length-1]; // Append last character
    replacedStr = replacedStr.Replace(" ", "%20");
    Console.WriteLine(replacedStr);
    Console.ReadLine();
}

回答10:

HttpServerUtility.HtmlEncode

From the documentation:

String TestString = "This is a <Test String>.";
String EncodedString = Server.HtmlEncode(TestString);

But this actually encodes HTML, not URLs. Instead use UrlEncode(TestString).
