ASP.NET Removing Querystring from friendly URL

Question

Hey I am trying to remove a querystring from a friendly URL i.e I have

/who-we-are/our-people.html?linkidentifier=id&itemid=42

And I want to change the above to

/who-we-are/our-people.html

How can I remove anything after the .html

Fastest way to do it reliably is to use the System.Uri class:

string pathOnly = new Uri("http://whatever.com/who-we-are/our-people.html?linkidentifier=id&itemid=42").AbsolutePath;

You need to use the Request's Path property - this article should give you everything you need: Making Sense of ASP.NET Paths
