It is actually the server doing this, not the browser.So I'm pretty sure there is no / after example.com, but what I see in the browser is:
http://www.example.com/?user=0123456
Does anyone know where the extra '/' is coming from, or if it matters at
all?
Now that I take a second look at it, I think it's possible that the browser
is the one adding the "/" after the "http://www.example.com";. Have you tried
this with different browsers and different versions?
Both Apache's HTTPD server, and Tomcat, when you send them a URL like "http://www.foo.com"; will issue a redirect to "http://www.foo.com/";. In both cases, this ends up requesting the welcome file -- but the interesting thing is *why* this is done. It's to ensure that relative URLs in the welcome file page are resolved correctly to resources in the same directory.
FWIW, I'm sure that "http://www.example.com/?user=0123456"; is a perfectly valid URL. It just happens to have a zero-length path element.

In the Action, I have: log.info("redirecting to: "+redirectURL); return new ActionForward( redirectURL, true );
The logs say: 15:53:45,640 - INFO edu.asu.vpia.struts.HarrisLoginAction - redirecting to: http://www.example.com?user=0123456 15:53:45,640 - DEBUG org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor - processForwardConfig(ForwardConfig[name=null,path=http://www.example.com ?user=0123456,redirect=true,contextRelative=false])
So I'm pretty sure there is no / after example.com, but what I see in the browser is:
http://www.example.com/?user=0123456
