How to get Url Hash (#) from server side

I'm having some trouble to get the hash value from a variable.

I'm using the default action in the AccountController

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult LogOn(LogOnModel model, string returnUrl) { ... }

but if I pass this link on:

http://localhost:1357/none/Account/LogOn?returnUrl=a/b/c#day-22

I can never catch the #day-22 value

below it's a breakpoint after the login:

enter image description here

I never get the hash value on the HttpContext.Request.Url object.

What can I do to forward the user to the correct URL with the hash part?

@GovindKamalaPrakashMalviya it's not exactly the same. – balexandre Aug 21 '12 at 10:51 — balexandre, Aug 21 '12 at 10:51

You need to urlencode it.

Try: http://localhost:1357/none/Account/LogOn?returnUrl=a/b/c%23day-22

This is not possible because the URL fragment (the bits after the #) is not sent from the browser to the server.

Oi João. So, how can I get it? – balexandre Aug 21 '12 at 10:44
You need to send that piece of information through other mechanism that actually allows sending information to the server, for example a hidden field. – João Angelo Aug 21 '12 at 10:46

Use HttpUtility.UrlEncode and HttpUtility.UrlDecode while forming/resolving that part.

L.B

The string never get's to the server... no matter what decode utility I use, The value is not there! – balexandre Aug 21 '12 at 10:46
