[RESOLVED] Convert VB Url Encode Method to C#

Hi guys, I have a method that encodes a Url. I want to convert it to C# normally I dont have a issue with things like this but it looks like it is calling itself without a value passed, very strange looking. Any tips on how to convert are much appreciated.

Code:

---

    Function URLEncode(ByVal Text As String) As String

        Dim i As Integer
        Dim acode As Integer
        'Dim char As String

        URLEncode = Text

        For i = Len(URLEncode) To 1 Step -1
            acode = Asc(Mid$(URLEncode, i, 1))
            Select Case acode
                Case 48 To 57, 65 To 90, 97 To 122
                    ' don't touch alphanumeric chars
                Case 32
                    URLEncode = URLEncode.Substring(0, i - 1) & "+" & Mid(URLEncode, i + 1)
                    ' replace space with "+"
                Case Else
                    ' replace punctuation chars with "%hex"
                    URLEncode = URLEncode.Substring(0, i - 1) & "%" & Hex$(acode) & Mid$(URLEncode, i + 1)
            End Select
            ' End If
        Next
        If InStr(URLEncode, "%D%A") Then
            URLEncode = Replace(URLEncode, "%D%A", "%0D%0A")
        End If
    End Function

There's a built-in encode method already:

System.Web.HttpServerUtility.UrlEncode(Text);

Not in the compact framework there is not, or at least it doesnt seem to be.

Seems they changed it round:

Code:

---

System.Net.HttpUtility.UrlEncode(MessageToSend);

---

OK, these two should be though:

System.Uri.EscapeUriString(Text);
System.Uri.EscapeDataString(Text);

Good find!

Cheers, it was a passing comment of a different site, nearly missed it.
