Get QueryString from inside a WebControl

I have a page which contains a dynamic number of custom WebControls. What I want to do is get the containing page's query string via "Request.QueryString".

If I understand the problem correctly I need the containing page's HttpRequest object?

Is there a way to do this?

I probably should point out that I don't want to pass the QueryString from the containing page to the WebControl. I want to access the QueryString directly from the WebControl.

Consider the following link:

HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString

You should be able to access the query string from a custom web user control (ascx) in the same way as you do from the page, i.e:

Request.QueryString...

From a custom control, you can either access it via:

Page.Request.QueryString
//or 
HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString

BTW: the last option (System.Web.HttpContext.Current...) also works from any non-web-control classes (e.g. business logic).

No need to to anything in particular, Request object is directly available also to webcontrols:

this.Request.QueryString

you can access the httpContext from anywhere using 

HttpContext.Current

From there you can find the Request and the querystring
