Passing parameters ASP.Net

Is there any way that I can pass parameters to a user control/page through the path(URL) in a ASP.Net Web application(not MVC).

i.e. http://abc.com/news/para-1/para-2 where para-1 and para-2 are parameters.

You can use ASP.NET Friendly URLs

The ASP.NET Friendly URLs library makes it easy to enable extensionless URLs for file-based handlers (e.g. ASPX, ASHX) in ASP.NET applications.

There is a good introduction by Scott Hanselman: Introducing ASP.NET FriendlyUrls - cleaner URLs, easier Routing, and Mobile Views for ASP.NET Web Forms

You could try using QueryStrings.

Redirect your page like this:

Response.Redirect("Webform2.aspx?Name=" +
this.txtName.Text + "&LastName=" +
this.txtLastName.Text);

And on your new page get the values like this:

private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    this.txtBox1.Text = Request.QueryString["Name"];
    this.txtBox2.Text = Request.QueryString["LastName"];
}

What you are looking for is called Routing.

If you're using .NET 4+, you can read how to implement it in a Web Forms application on MSDN.

Your rule essentially comes down to this, assuming news.aspx is where you want to go:

routes.MapPageRoute("NewsRoute",
    "News/{arg1}/{arg2}",
    "~/news.aspx");

You can then proceed to access the values using any of the following methods:

Page.RouteData.Values["arg1"]
<asp:Literal ID="Literal" Text="<%$RouteValue:arg1%>" runat="server"></asp:Literal>

If you're not using .NET 4+, Scott Hanselman writes about ASP.NET FriendlyUrls, which is available in NuGet.
