How to get the special chars(%#&”) from JSP to Java

@toicontienFeb 01.2008 — #Are you using AJAX to post the contents of a FORM? On the JavaScript side (assuming you meant Java[B]Script[/B] when you said Java), there are two functions you'll find handy when dealing with URLs and special characters:

var name = "John Doe";
 var nameEncoded = encodeURIComponent(name);
 
 alert(nameEncoded); // Alerts "John%20Doe"

The code above takes a non URL-encoded string and encodes it so any special characters are encoded as [B]%NN[/B], where "NN" is replaced by the ASCII or UTF-8 character code. On the server side, you'll need a function in JSP that decodes the URL encoded string.

var nameEncoded = "John%20Doe";
 var name = decodeURIComponent(nameEncoded);
 
 alert(name); // Alerts "John Doe"

The code above takes a URL encoded string and decodes it. All encoded special characters are decoded to the real characters. On the server side, you'll need some function in JSP the url-encodes a string.

Can you post the HTML for your form? Also, is your form being submitting normally (by clicking a button and doing a normal form POST) or by using AJAX?

@kasipandianauthorFeb 02.2008 — #Thanks for your response. I tried with encodeURIComponent() function from UI. Now I'm getting the values, What I wrote in the UI. And I dont have any function in servlet to decode the values. It's auutomatically decoding and its giving the correct value. Now my problem was solved. Thank you very much friend........
