Examples

The following examples access the HttpRequest instance for the current request by using the Request property of the Page class.

You can use simplified syntax for accessing data from the QueryString, Form, Cookies, or ServerVariables collections. You can write Request["key"].

The first example shows how to retrieve a query string value when loading a page.

public partial class AddToCart : Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string rawId = Request["ProductID"];
        int productId;
        if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(rawId) && int.TryParse(rawId, out productId))
        {
            using (ShoppingCartActions usersShoppingCart = new ShoppingCartActions())
            {
                usersShoppingCart.AddToCart(productId);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            throw new Exception("Tried to call AddToCart.aspx without setting a ProductId.");
        }
        Response.Redirect("ShoppingCart.aspx");
    }
}

Public Class AddToCart
    Inherits Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        Dim rawId = Request("ProductID")
        Dim productId As Integer
        If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(rawId) And Integer.TryParse(rawId, productId) Then
            Using usersShoppingCart As New ShoppingCartActions()
                usersShoppingCart.AddToCart(productId)
            End Using

        Else
            Throw New Exception("Tried to call AddToCart.aspx without setting a ProductId.")
        End If
        Response.Redirect("ShoppingCart.aspx")
    End Sub
End Class

The next example shows how to check if the request is authenticated and retrieve the raw URL.

public partial class RestrictedPage : Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (!Request.IsAuthenticated)
        {
            var rawUrl = Request.RawUrl;
            Response.Redirect("/Account/Login?ru=" + Server.HtmlEncode(rawUrl));
        }
    }
}

Public Class RestrictedPage
    Inherits Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        If Not Request.IsAuthenticated Then
            Dim rawUrl = Request.RawUrl
            Response.Redirect("/Account/Login?ru=" + Server.HtmlEncode(rawUrl))
        End If
    End Sub
End Class

A Visual Studio Web site project with source code is available to accompany this topic: Download.

This example uses the StreamWriter class to write the values of several HttpRequest class properties to a file. For properties that are of type string, the values are HTML encoded as they are written to the file. Properties that represent a collection are looped through, and each key/value pair that they contain is written to the file.

Important

This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

Remarks

The methods and properties of the HttpRequest class are exposed through the Request properties of the HttpApplication, HttpContext, Page, and UserControl classes.

To access data from the QueryString, Form, Cookies, or ServerVariables collections, you can write Request["key"], as shown in the example for the QueryString property.

Note

Unicode support for HttpRequest class members requires IIS version 6.0 or later.

Constructors

HttpRequest(String, String, String)

Initializes an HttpRequest object.

Properties

AcceptTypes	Gets a string array of client-supported MIME accept types.
AnonymousID	Gets the anonymous identifier for the user, if present.
ApplicationPath	Gets the ASP.NET application's virtual application root path on the server.

HttpMethod	Gets the HTTP data transfer method (such as `GET`, `POST`, or `HEAD`) used by the client.
InputStream	Gets the contents of the incoming HTTP entity body.
IsAuthenticated	Gets a value indicating whether the request has been authenticated.
IsLocal	Gets a value indicating whether the request is from the local computer.
IsSecureConnection	Gets a value indicating whether the HTTP connection uses secure sockets (that is, HTTPS).
Item[String]	Gets the specified object from the QueryString, Form, Cookies, or ServerVariables collections.
LogonUserIdentity	Gets the WindowsIdentity type for the current user.
Params	Gets a combined collection of QueryString, Form, Cookies, and ServerVariables items.
Path	Gets the virtual path of the current request.
PathInfo	Gets the additional path information for a resource with a URL extension.
PhysicalApplicationPath	Gets the physical file system path of the currently executing server application's root directory.

BinaryRead(Int32)	Performs a binary read of a specified number of bytes from the current input stream.
Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetBufferedInputStream()	Gets a Stream object that can be used to read the incoming HTTP entity body.
GetBufferlessInputStream()	Gets a Stream object that can be used to read the incoming HTTP entity body.
GetBufferlessInputStream(Boolean)	Gets a Stream object that can be used to read the incoming HTTP entity body, optionally disabling the request-length limit that is set in the MaxRequestLength property.
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
InsertEntityBody()	Provides IIS with a copy of the HTTP request entity body.
InsertEntityBody(Byte[], Int32, Int32)	Provides IIS with a copy of the HTTP request entity body and with information about the request entity object.
MapImageCoordinates(String)	Maps an incoming image-field form parameter to appropriate x-coordinate and y-coordinate values.
MapPath(String, String, Boolean)	Maps the specified virtual path to a physical path.
MapPath(String)	Maps the specified virtual path to a physical path.
MapRawImageCoordinates(String)	Maps an incoming image field form parameter into appropriate x and y coordinate values.
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
