Render friendly URL in code behind
You can convert between internal and external urls by using the UrlRewriteProvider:
http://sdk.episerver.com/library/CMS5/html/AllMembers_T_EPiServer_Web_UrlRewriteProvider.htm
You can get the current provider through the Global class in code:
EPiServer.Global.UrlRewriteProvider.ConvertToExternal(new UrlBuilder(myUrl), null, Encoding.UTF8);

I've tried using that but all I get is "True". I'm pretty sure I'm using it wrong.

Sorry, was a bit quick with the code sample there, try this:
var ub = new UrlBuilder(internalUrl);
EPiServer.Global.UrlRewriteProvider.ConvertToExternal(ub, null, Encoding.UTF8);
string externalUrl = ub.ToString();
The true value you get means that the conversion was successful.

I'm trying to render a friendly url to add to a javascript click event in my markup. The URL I get isn't very friendly though. I use this code to get the url of the page and the necessary querystrings for languagebranches, etc, but how do I make it a friendly url?
string tellFriendPageUrl;
PageReference tellFriendPageRef = CurrentPage["TellFriend"] as PageReference;
if (tellFriendPageRef != null)
{
PageData tellFriendPage = GetPage(tellFriendPageRef);
tellFriendPageUrl = tellFriendPage.LinkURL;
}
