Windows Phone 7 passing multiple items between pages

Paul Harsent

Hi, I am building a simple windows phone 7 app. I need to pass more that one data item between pages. I know you need to make a small change to sending one data item across but im not sure what this change is. Currently I send one item across like this:

phoneApplicationPage.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("/Pages/View_Stickies.xaml?string=" + info, UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute));

Where in this case info is the string sent. I unpack it on page 2 like this:

    protected override void OnNavigatedTo(System.Windows.Navigation.NavigationEventArgs e)
    {
        if (this.NavigationContext.QueryString.ContainsKey("string"))
        {
           string GPS = this.NavigationContext.QueryString\["string"\];
           MessageBox.Show(GPS);
        }

        base.OnNavigatedTo(e);
    }

Im sure there is a very simple answer to the question and any help would be great. Thanks

As you are passing a query string across, all you need to do is add the second key value pair after a &, so your example could become:

string.Format("/Pages/View_Stickies.xaml?string={0}&id={1}", info, id)
