Class URLEncoder
java.lang.Object
|
+--com.ibm.as400.util.html.URLEncoder
- public class URLEncoder
- extends java.lang.Object
The URLEncoder class encodes a string's delimiters for use in an HTML URL string.
For example, the following HTML URL string is not valid and would need to be encoded:
http://mySystem.myCompany.com/servlet/myServlet?parm1="/library/test1#partA"&parm2="/library/test2#partB"
The following example uses the URLEncoder class to encode two URL string parameter values:
HTMLForm form = new HTMLForm();
String action = "http://mySystem.myCompany.com/servlet/myServlet";
String parm1 = "parm1=" + URLEncoder.encode("\"/library/test1#partA\"");
String parm2 = "parm2=" + URLEncoder.encode("\"/library/test2#partB\"");
form.setURL(action + "?" + parm1 + "&" + parm2);
The delimiters that are encoded include:
- The ASCII characters 'a' through 'z', 'A' through 'Z', and '0' through '9' remain the same.
- The space character ' ' is converted into a plus sign '+'.
- All other characters are converted into the 3-character string "%xy", where xy is the two-digit hexadecimal
representation of the lower 8-bits of the character.
