How are you creating the URL? Try one of these methods:
path = URLEncoder.encode("finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=^DJI", "UTF-8");
uri = new URI("http://"; + path);
...or...
uri = new URI("http", "finance.yahoo.com", "/q/hp?s=^DJI", "");

RFC2396 does list '^' as one of the 'unwise' characters. The inference
is that '^' should be escaped, though the RFC does not say so
explicitly.
The Java API docs on URI and URLencode, OTOH, recommend always using
URI rather than URLEncode, converting from URI to URL only as needed,
using toURL.
Judging from all the sample code ignoring the recommendation, I'd say
not many people did know. That is why I posted the quote from the API
docs.
OTOH, it is a mild nuisance that URI throws URISyntaxException, which
isn't even an IOException. So I suspect the desire to avoid dealing
with this is t
thanks all for the feedback,
Using uri = new URI("http", "finance.yahoo.com", "/q/hp?s=^DJI",
""); ,
I got 404 not found,
Using path = URLEncoder.encode("finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=^DJI",
"UTF-8");
uri = new URI("http://"; + path);
I got E/AndroidRuntime( 311): Caused by:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentE

Good info Indicator.. I did not read both APIs to know that either was
better than the other... for URIs this is good to know.
