Java Help - Servlets

[Rose Girl]

Hi

I am using the response.sendRe direct(url) method. url is path to
another servlet. Example:

response.sendRe direct(response .encodeRedirect URL
("/EcBugManager/servlet/bugmanager.bugm anager.gui.Bugs heetPage?
type="+bugsheet Type+"&page="+p age);

I am using the response.encode RedirectURL to encode the url as i dont
want the parameters to be seen in the explorer - address bar.

?? But nothing happens, it just returns the same string with all the
paramteers without being encoded.

Am i using the correct way to encode the url, or is there another way
to do it.

Please, help me on this
Thanks for your time

Rose.

Hi Rose, URLEncoding just changes certain characters in the url string a
space for example becomes %20, see here for a list of codes

http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_ref_urlencode.asp

If you don't want the query string to be seen you need to post the data
(typically from a browser). If you are wanting to pass the data from one
Servlet to another Servlet check out the RequestDispatch er in the api & (set
attributes in the HttpSession, ServletRequest or ServletContext) . A
RequestDispatch er can be obtained from the ServletContext or from the
ServletRequest & HttpServletRequ est. The RequestDispatch er obtained from the
ServletRequest can take a relative path. See
ServletRequest. getNamedDispatc her() also.
