Whenever I dig into the HTTP specification, I end up having to read all over it to find things like this. I seem to recall that: 1. I've located this information in the past 2. The real answer was that HTTP headers format inherits from SMTP 3. SMTP requires pure ASCII headers 4. The request line ("GET /whatever HTTP/[version]") does not count ~ as a header Unfortunately, I can't find my references and so my assertions are pretty much worthless. :( | so this is what Tomcat uses by default when parsing the query-string.

I find it more useful to set URIEncoding="UTF-8" in the <Connector>, since the page encoding and URI encoding are not guaranteed to be the same.
