If you try the above URL, does it work? java.net.URLEncoder will encode ";" as "%3B". See the URL Specification (RFC 1738, http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt), section 2.2 "URL Character Encoding Issues ": " Many URL schemes reserve certain characters for a special meaning: their appearance in the scheme-specific part of the URL has a designated semantics. If the character corresponding to an octet is reserved in a scheme, the octet must be encoded. The characters ";", "/", "?", ":", "@", "=" and "&" are the characters which may be reserved for special meaning within a scheme. No other characters may be reserved within a scheme. " The HTTP specification does not specifically say that semi-colons are reserved, but perhaps the common interpretation of the URL spec is such that semi-colons should always be encoded. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkpozVsACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBnLwCfXFSSIDAnRR0BurRKeS0ub/v9 3UYAoJ1gp5oIqnJw2WgHx9LdVzqqAOAI =rpT0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
