Hi Wes,
Thanks for taking time to answer my question. Guess I was not clear with
the the examples I gave. Yes, I am using all Struts actions, s:url, s:a
tags, and everything. The thing is the Struts tags:
<s:url var="theLink" action="world" namespace="/whatever" *encode="true"*>
<s:param name=country value="whatever"/>
<s:param name="city" value="whatever"/>
</s:url>
<s:a href="#theLink">nyc</s:a>
don't seem to implicitly call "response.encodeURL" as the c:url tag would if
I used plain JSP and JSTL. As a result, UrlRewritter cannot intercept it
and apply the outbound rules. I was wondering if there were ways to get
around that.
Cheers,
Daniel
