Christoph Nenning commented on WW-4628:
---------------------------------------

Recently I had an issue with {{<s:url  includeParams="get" encode="false" />}}, 
too. In my case it was also a parameter with spaces. That parameter is already 
encoded and gets encoded a 2nd time. That causes problems when generated URL is 
used.

Creation of URL happens in class {{DefaultUrlHelper}}. The method 
{{buildParameterSubstring(String name, String value)}} always encodes name and 
value, without checking {{encode}} parameter (in this class it is called 
{{encodeResult}}).

IMHO the issue is that {{DefaultUrlHelper}} has two use cases:
* Invoked with {{buildUrl()}}. In that case the parameter  {{encodeResult}} is 
present and taken into account for the whole url. But parameters might have 
been already encoded.
* Invoked with {{buildParametersString()}}. In that case no encoding parameter 
is present and it gets always encoded.

I'm going to add another version of {{buildParametersString()}} which has an 
encoding parameter. The default will still be to encode.

>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.3.28
>            Reporter: Pierre-Yves Soblet
>             Fix For: 2.3.31

> With this JSP snippet using Struts 2 taglib:
> {code}
> myParameter=[<s:property value="%{#parameters['myParameter']}"/>]
> <br/>
> <s:url action="url" includeParams="get"/>
> <br/>
> <s:url action="url">
>     <s:param name="myParameter" value="%{#parameters['myParameter']}"/>
> </s:url>
> {code}
> When the action is called with a parameter containing a space (which is 
> escaped in the URL) :
> {code}
> localhost:8080/url?myParameter=with+space
> {code}
> The output is as follows :
> {code}
> myParameter=[with space]
> /url.action?myParameter=with%2Bspace
> /url.action?myParameter=with+space    
> {code}
> The *includeParams* attribute of the “url” tag seems to transform the "space" 
> character into the "plus" character (both in their url-encoded forms).
