How to send email address as parameter in wcf method

Question

This is my operation contract. I want to test this method in a browser. But when I type any email in the browser like http://localhost:1234/json/user/abc/abc@abc.com, it does not work

[OperationContract]
[WebInvoke(Method = "GET", 
 RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json,
 ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json, 
 BodyStyle = WebMessageBodyStyle.Wrapped, 
 UriTemplate = "json/user/{name}/{email}")]
string addUser(string name, string email);

How do I send the email address as a single string?? any idea?

Try to URL encode your e-mail address:

http://localhost:1234/json/user/abc/abc%40abc.com

Does that result in the call you expect?

HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for or one of its dependencies, may have been removed or is temporarily unavailable. Check the following URL is spelled correctly. – Crime Master Gogo Aug 17 '11 at 14:04
