title: Deleting an Azure Blob in MVC 3
body: <p>I'm trying to delete blobs in an mvc 3 application that uses azure storage.</p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to pass the Uri of the blob which will be deleted to the controller, however an error is thrown:</p>
  
  <p><code>A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (:)</code></p>
  
  <p>I think this is from the <code>https:</code> part of the Uri and I need to parse it out, however I'm not sure how to do that. I'm wondering how to fix this error.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a more graceful way to delete a blob from storage?</p>
