When I try to pass some special characters, though query string in the URL property of the Ajax post method, it seems to be some error happened. That means I won't get correct special characters when hitting controller action in ASP.NET MVC 4.
My code is
var temp=temp@#$#%#%#979
url=(Controller/Action/id/name?departname=+temp);
request from a script function from a cshtml formajax
If you are making your ajax request from javascript, then use encodeURIComponent:-
var temp = encodeURIComponent('temp@#$#%#%#979'); //temp%40%23%24%23%25%23%25%23979
use HttpUtility.UrlEncode for encoding the parameter
var temp = temp@#$#%#%#979
HttpUtility.UrlEncode(temp)
url = (Controller/Action/id/name?departname=+temp);
and use Server.UrlDecode for decoding the parameter in controller
var Depart = Server.UrlDecode(Request.QueryString["DepartmentName"]);
I'm not familiar with ASP.net, however most languages require you to URL encode strings that are meant to be used as part of a URL.
For example: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/4fkewx0t%28v=vs.110%29.aspx
I hope this helps get you moving in the right direction.
