We have been having this problem which has been making 1999 end
misearable. I appreciate if someone can help out on this one.
We have URL link in our HTML page generated by our servlets that looks
somewhat like this
servlet/server?table=bookhouse/customer&where=+cust_id+like+'%901%'
servlet/server == the servlet named server
table parameter 1 name of the database/table
where where condition that says cust_id like '%901%'
to be used by the SQL
a) we have replaced all spaces with '+' as required
b) we have left '%901%' hoping that this will be converted as
%27%25901%25%27 by the browser. But unfortunately the
browser is not doing and it sends it as
%901% only. However the servlet container thinks that it is encoded and
converts '%901%' to '1%', i.e %90 is unencoded by
HttpUtils.parseQueryString(). Now if I remember correctly, this used to
happen earlier. This has
recently started. My question is does the servlet/web server send
something to the browser to say that it must encode url
Grateful for any help :-)
