Hi,

Is the function that formats the TabName to a URL friendly format in the MachineFriendlyURLProvider also publicly available in the DNN API?

I want to use this in my module for specifying additional querystring formatting.

Thanks!

Hi Rudgr,

The many overloads of the DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.NavigateURL method are where you'll want to look for this functionality.  In my experience, the following are the most commonly used:
   NavigateURL(string.Empty, "MyName", "MyValue") -> Creates a url to the current page, no focus on any particular module, with a MyName=MyValue querystring
   NavigateURL(tabId, string.Empty, "MyName", "MyValue") -> Creates a url for the given tabId with MyName=MyValue querystring

And less often,

   NavigateURL("MyControlKey", "MyName", "MyValue") -> Creates a url for the current page, with the control key as focus, and MyName=MyValue querystring
Note that you can string together as many querystring key/value pairs as you wish.

Hope this helps!

Brandon

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your reply!

Somehow I didn't receive the forum notifications, so I could not respond earlier.

I know about the NavigateURL() overloads, but I mean a different function.

Suppose you give a DNN tab a name of "Home & Test$$$".

The machine and human friendly url provider changes this tabname in the link to a URL friendly name:

http://localhost/dcmodules/HomeTest/tabid/36/language/en-US/Default.aspx

I want to use the function that's responsible for that conversion in my own module project.

Thanks!

Rutger
