OK. But now, is there any way to distinguish between a '+' that results from encoding '%2B' and a '+' that stands for ' ' ?
In other words, if request.getPathInfo() returns '/Hit+Run' , this could be '/Hit+Run' or '/Hit Run' ... Olaf >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10.04.2002 17:07 >>> According to RFC2396, '+' is are reserved character in the query string, but not in the path portion of a URL. There was a bug fix in Tomcat 3.3.1 to avoid translating '+' to ' ' in the parts of the URL prior to the query string.
