Why is '+' decoded to ' ' in the path part of the URL? That is, I think, wrong. The '+' char has no special meaning in HTTP/1.1 (RFC 2616) [1], so in the path part of the URL it just means itself, the plus sign. It is the HTML Forms spec [2] that makes it special, defining "urlencoding" used when submitting web forms through HTTP. It has special meaning only in the query part of the URL and only because of that part of HTML spec. [1] http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616 [2] http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.1 > What my application actually sees after decoding: sites/one one<five What is your application code here? Where and how do you obtain the "decoded" value? E.g. calling http://localhost:8080/examples/servlets/servlet/RequestInfoExample/foo+bar in 6.0.20 and also in 6.0.22 RC displays Path Info: /foo+bar so that API is working properly.
