http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24631 Struts tags use bytes of UTF-8 for urlencoding unconditionally [EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Severity|Enhancement |Normal ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-11-13 08:54 ------- I read over the HTML related specifications and I now believe this actually is a bug rather than enhancemant. UTF-8 is, in fact, not recommended as characterEncoding for bytes of URLEncoding anywhere. RFC2141 does require UTF-8 as character encoding for the bytes of URLEncoding, but HTML URI syntax is not bound to it (uri in HTML is bound to RFC2398, which does not mandate nor recommend UTF-8 as character encoding). Many people seem to misunderstand appendix B.2.1 of HTML4.01 specification as recommendation of using UTF-8 bytes for URLEoncoding but what it says is how 'user agents' should handle malformed url that contains non-ascii character, and it has no relavance to how the server should urlencode non-ascii character. The impact of this bug seem to be quite serious. It required considerable design change to some applications, as there is no 'easy' work around. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
