I have a PHP page that I'm converting to ASP.NET.  The page uses a form with a get method to collect address information, and pass that information onto mapquest.  With this form, when you get to mapquest, the collected address is already in the from section of the directions page.

Using a button and putting the mapquest URL in the postback property, I can get the button to take me to mapquest, but the address information isn't filled in.  Any idea how I can get the address info filled in?

MapQuest will accept the parameters as part of the of the query string.  There are a few ways you can go about doing this, depending on if you want your user to have to click the search button or not.  First, rather than using the PostBackUrl property, navigate to MapQuest using the button's click handler.  In the button handler add code to do one of the following:

        //params for map
        string mapParams = "city=Redmond&state=WA&address=1+Microsoft+Way&zipcode=98052";
        //params for directions
        string directionParams = "1c=Redmond&1s=WA&1a=1+Microsoft+Way&1z=98052&2c=Mountain+View&2s=CA&2a=1600+Amphitheatre+Parkway+++&2z=94043";
        //redirect and fill in map fields
        Response.Redirect("http://www.mapquest.com?" + mapParams);
        //redirect and fill in direction fields
        Response.Redirect("http://www.mapquest.com?" + directionParams);
        //redirect directly to map without requiring user to click search
        Response.Redirect("http://www.mapquest.com/maps?" + mapParams);
        //redirect directly to directions without requiring user to click get directions
        Response.Redirect("http://www.mapquest.com/maps?" + directionParams);

Hope this helps
