Posted here FYI (because it wasted an hour or so of my time)
When executing :
Response.Redirect("~/default.aspx?user=" & userID)
when userID is a Windows Authenticated user (ie is in the form
"domain\user"), the "\" is changed to "/"
(A bit of a PITA when you then look this up in a database for user-specific
data)
It looks like despite \ being valid in the QueryString, Response.Redirect
simply replaces \ with / (probably to fix URLs) regardless of it's location
Server.HTMLEncode does not affect this character, so you have to mung it
manually :-(
