You are mixing three thing together:
1) HTML encoding which replaces the character > with >
It is used for special characters in HTML pages.
2) URL encoding which replaces the character > with %3E
It is used for special characters in URLs
2) URL rewriting which keeps sessions
It is used for browsers without cookies to keep sessions.
The purpose of the confusion is that :
URL rewriting is done by javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse.encodeURL()
URL encoding is done by java.net.URLEncoder.encode()
so the method for URL "rewriting" is named "encodeURL".
