> Environment: Tomcat or Jetty (probably others)

> The use of URLEncoder.encode is incorrect in this scenario. The URLEncoder
> is meant for encoding query string values - not values that appear in the
> path portion of a URI.
> Because the AbstractRequestTargetUrlCodingStrategy is used by other classes
> to encode values that appear in the path, problems can occur when that path
> has spaces. For example, the parameter "message with spaces
> and+some+pluses" is encoded as follows in a URL:
> http://localhost:8080/bugs/home/message/message+with+spaces+and%2Bsome%2Bpluses/
> However, the resulting request.getServletPath() call returns this:
> /home/message/message+with+spaces+and+some+plusses=bug/
> Note that the + in the path are not turned back into spaces. This is the
> correct behavior and is seen in both Tomcat and Jetty.
> See the RFC (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt) for a full description of
> what should or should not be encoded.
> /**
> * Url encodes a string
> *
> * @param string
> * string to be encoded
> * @return encoded string
> */
> protected String urlEncode(String string)
> {
> try
> {
> return URLEncoder.encode(string,
> Application.get().getRequestCycleSettings()
> .getResponseRequestEncoding());
> }
> catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
> {
> log.error(e.getMessage(), e);
> return string;
> }
