Passing a username into a url

I'm trying to set my user variable in my link equal to the current user's username.

Here is what I have:

<li><a runat="server" href="~/Profiles?user=<%: Context.User.Identity.GetUserName() %>">Profile</a></li>

The url that I end up getting is this:

/Profiles?user=<%:%20Context.User.Identity.GetUserName()%20%>

How do I amend my code to properly place the username in the url?

I'm using the webforms template and identity 2.0

You can get the HREF attribute set at runtime though like

Design:

<li><a id="A1" runat="server">Profile</a></li>

In Code:

this.A1.HRef = "~/Profiles?user=" + Context.User.Identity.Name;
