hello, i am receiving url as the request parameter. the url for example is, "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=servlet" i want to use response.sendRedirect() method to rdirect to the url page. i tried String urlStringFromRequest = URLEncoder.encode(request.getParameter("url")); and then use, response.sendRedirect(urlStringFromRequest)
but this fails as the urlStringFromRequest value is read as: http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fsearch%3Fhl%3Den thanks for your help. -- hiren ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
