how does Request.QueryString work?

Question

I have a code example like this :

 location.href = location.href + \"/Edit?pID=\" + hTable.getObj().ID; ; //aspx    
 parID = Request.QueryString[\"pID\"];          


        

Answer 1

The Request object is the entire request sent out to some server. This object comes with a QueryString dictionary that is everything after '?' in the URL.
