URI Encoding

[Yewint Ko]

Hi all
I am having problem with tomcat uriencoding. I have html form in my jsp submitting with "get" method and parameters are sent to server as query string . But it seems tomcat doenst encode the url and submitted texts are not the original ones. Generally I know that such URIEncoding is handled by application server. I have already added URIEncoding attribute setting to "UTF-8" in <tomat_home>/conf/server.xml . But the problem remains , all submitted data are not as i expected.

Any help please
thanks

Is there any way to do URIEncoding programatically. For the data submitted with POST method , i used to have a filter to encode incoming data. ( request.setCharacterEncoding() and resopnse.setCharacterEncoding() )

Character encoding is not URL encoding. Don't waste your time fiddling with character encoding if URL encoding is not working. On the other the browsers and Tomcat actually do URL encoding correctly, so perhaps the character encoding is really your problem after all. You might want to describe your problem (what you expected, what you see instead) before blindly trying to fix it.

yes , it is URL Encoding problem. I enter some UTF8 strings နည္းပညာ , but on the server side I got နည္းပညာ .

I used to solve such problem by adding URIEncoding attribute in server.xml. But this times , it doesnt work.

here is my connector tag

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"  connectionTimeout="20000"  redirectPort="8443" URIEncoding="UTF-8" />
