Answer 1

if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request.QueryString["search"]))

I had the same issue here. So here's what I was doing wrong. Right now, you're "Requesting" a "QueryString" named "search". You don't have that query string. On the other hand, you need to create it.

All you have now is a string named "search" , not a QueryString therefore Request.Querystring["search"] returns the value null .

I was using MVC in a controller when doing it and my logic told me eventually that what I should have done is search my Model for my variable named "search". Basically I replaced the original if with

if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(model.search))
{
Your code here
}

What this did was telling the controller to go and find the variable named "search" in my "model" and "if" the !string.IsNullOrEmpty, then execute my code underneath.

I haven't read your whole code and as I said I was using MVC when doing it, so adjust it to your own code as you want.
