Re: request.getParameter() decode a url incorrectly

[Chris Pratt]

It sounds like you encoded the whole URL, rather than just encoding the values of the query arguments.  That won't work, you need to encode just the query argument values, so that your final URL looks something of the form:  http://host.domain.com/path/file.html?arg1=Encoded+Value&arg2=Encoded%2FSlash   (*Chris*) ----- Original Message ----- From: M.

Is there any way to recover such problem ?   Regards,  M. Amin
