First of all, sounds like you might be mixing two things up.
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse.encodeURL() is part of the JSDK
API, and is used when sessions are maintained by URL rewriting (as
opposed to cookies). java.net.URLEncoder.encode() is part of the JDK
API, and is used to encode URLs (or strings therein) so that naughty
characters are not there. So it looks like you are really asking
about that latter one.
And my answer is, use the source, Luke. In many/most/all? versions of
the JDK, the source is included, and you can see exactly what the
method is doing.
In any case, it looks like (part of) the problem here is that you have
a "#" in your URL, and those are interpreted as indicating named
anchors within the URL (that might not quite be the exact correct
terminology, but I think most know what I mean). So, in this case,
"#" is one of those naughty characters that you need to do something
about.
