There is no difference between java.net.URLEncoder and commons-codec.

I've test it and it seems to work. Could I use also java.net.URLEncoder? Is there any difference?
Thanks again.

"+" is the standard way to encode space character. Your site should support it. You can also use class java.net.URLEncoder included in the JDK but spaces will still be encoded as "+".
Why would it ba a problem for you?

In the latest versions you can use class org.apache.http.client.utils.URLEncodedUtils > I guess you are already using HttpClient on your project? If not, if you just need to encode values for querystring, you can use commons-codec library: > http://commons.apache.org/codec/apidocs/org/apache/commons/codec/net/URLCodec.html#encode(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) <http://commons.apache.org/codec/apidocs/org/apache/commons/codec/net/URLCodec.html#encode%28java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String%29>

I was thinking about using this method org.apache.commons.httpclient.util.URIUtil.encodeWithinQuery: is this right? I have seen many confusing discussion about encoding http request in many other forum.
