<div>
Try following<br />

<pre><code id="code-102136">var retVal = window.showModalDialog('EntitiesList.aspx?name=&quot; + escape(name), window, 'dialogWidth:220px;dialogHeight:200px,top=300,left=400,');</code></pre>
</div>


Try following


var retVal = window.showModalDialog('EntitiesList.aspx?name=" + escape(name), window, 'dialogWidth:220px;dialogHeight:200px,top=300,left=400,');

<div>
I tried 'escape' but it didn't help.<br />
When i debug the application i see that i send the correct value, but in my cs page it is not received properly.<br />
<br />
I am using:<br />
<br />
name = Request[&quot;name&quot;];
</div>

Hello,<br />
<br />
I am writing a c# asp.net application in which i want to open a modal dialog and sent parameters to it.<br />
<br />
var retVal = window.showModalDialog('En<wbr />titiesList<wbr />.aspx?name<wbr />=&quot; + name, window, 'dialogWidth:220px;dialogH<wbr />eight:200p<wbr />x,top=300,<wbr />left=400,'<wbr />);<br />
<br />
When my 'name' parameter contains foreign characters (for example, Montó or María), the value received at the destination page has a square (box) instead of the special letter.<br />
<br />
How can i send the special characters to my destination page?<br />
<br />
Thank you

Sending foreign characters to a modalDialog using 'window.showModalDialog'

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

JavaScript

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications

ASP.NET

Web applications are systems that run in browsers that perform functions normally associated with other client-based programs. One of the most commonly used web applications is email; instead of downloading individual emails to a local machine, the data is shown through a website. Other examples of web applications are collaborative systems like a wiki or an online game.
