Encoding URL in jsp

Hello All,
I want to encode URL in my jsp code such that when the jsp is rendered and if user sees the source code then the url should not be shown.
Is this possible ?
Thanks

if user sees the source code then the url should not be shownIf html source code doesn't contain the URLs then how will browser know where to send HTTP request? It is like saying "I sent my sister a $100 bank cheque but didn't sign it because I don't want her to know who has sent it."

[SOLVED] Encoded URL's are Re-Encoded When Clicked

Some of our users here are copying URL's of relevant files [from one of our sites] and pasting them into Excel.
As the need arises, they refer back to the Excel document and click the link to retrieve the document.
When clicked the already-encoded URL's:
https://sub.domain/some/path/to/files/My%20Super%20Long%20File%20Name-Thats%20Already%20Encoded.pdf
Are getting encoded a second time, which result in a URL like:
https://sub.domain/some/path/to/files/My%2520Super%2520Long%2520File%2520Name-Thats%2520Already%2520Encoded.pdf
This naturally won't work because its now literally looking for a file called "My%20Super%20Long%20File%20Name-Thats%20Already%20Encoded.pdf" which of course doesn't exist.
The URL's in Excel appear normal in the cells themselves.
The editing the actual hyperlink confirms its also correct there as well.
The URL's also look normal in the formula bar.
I've reproduced this behavior on multiple company machines: Windows 7 x64 Enterprise SP1 with Office ProPlus 2010 32-bit.
I was also able to reproduce this on vanilla Windows 7 VM's in Hyper-V using Office ProPlus 2010 and 2013. Although domain joined, they're in an OU with blocked inheritance enabled and no linked GPO's.
I can't figure out where the problem is: Excel, Windows, IIS or something else?

Hi,
I’ve done a test for this situation, but the url won’t change after reopening the file.
1. A pdf file in SharePoint, and the file name contains some spaces which is the same with customers.
2. Input the SharePoint URL into Excel, and each spaces has been replaced by %20
3. Then, I can open the file in IE
4. After I closed the website and excel file, I could open it in IE again and the URL didn’t change.
As you mentioned in the ticket “Are getting encoded a second time, which result in a URL like”, may I know if the re-encoding was done automatically or manually? Based on the test result, it won’t encode a second automatically.
If it is done manually, the issue should be most likely caused by the space character being encoded twice, because the space character is encoded as %20 as our two url show. However, based on your second url, it turned into %2520, Since the % character
is encoded as %25, it should be a result of a double encoded. Actually, URLs need their characters to be in a specific format, ASCII characters, so that browsers can correctly interpret and parse the data. For every ASCII character in URLs, it will be encoded
a string starting with %, and % is also an ASCII character in URLs and encoded to %25. If we double encode a URL, which results that every ASCII character in the URL will be encoded a string starting with %25, and that the URL becomes invalid. Therefore, I
suggest you name the file using
alpha-numeric
characters
only or do not encode it twice.
If it is done automatically, since you have reproduced the issue on multiple machines, could you please help check the following Excel settings in several machines to make comparisons with each other.
Excel Option>Advanced, Scroll to the General section and click Web Options, select Encoding
If it possible, would you mind sharing a test file with me to do a test from my end?

A peculiar problem with encode url

Hi,
I have the following code snippet in jsp
<a href="<%=urlencoder.encode("cxc.jsp?P1=RWDS") %">> Rewards</a>
But when this page is requested, the oracle application server responds with response 404 stating requested url not found.we aer using oracle application server 10g release 2.
But without encoding the response is correctly displayed.
has it got to do anything with encoding? or will it be required to change the code.
But the same encoded url works perfectly fine on iplanet application server.
Thanks in advance

I was able to solve this by including the google code in an external PHP file as well. However if my template has a repeating region in it, and my contribute user adds a region from it, it breaks the code again :/
Are there any other suggestions out there??

Iisforward and encoded URLs

I cannot seem to get the iisproxy/iisforward combination to properly handle
encoded URL session strings.
I have been performing my tests with WebLogic Sever 5.1.0sp5, IIS 5 and
Windows 2000 (both IE and Netscape). I use the
examples.servlets.SessionServlet included with WebLogic server. It has a
link that tests encoded URL session management. With sp4 and before, the
iisproxy handled this well, so long as I included the arbitrary extension.
The forwarding works to hit the servlet the first time, but subsequent
times present me with a 404, as if the proxy decided it shouldn't forward
the request and IIS is searching its files. IIS logs confirm this.
Anyone been able to get encodeURL() calls to work through the proxy?
Jesse

Either no one uses encodedURLs or no one bothered trying this. However, I
found this behavior in both IIS 4 and IIS 5 and filed a bug report. A
change request has been made and can be tracked via ID 189897.

A wierd problem while encoding URLs

Hi all,
I'm facing a wierd problem with the java.net.URLEncoder class. The encode function in this class is used for encoding URL based on standards like "UTF-8" etc..
I need to encode the URLs, because i have to send this information in a XML to another server.. Here's what the URLEncoder is doing if i give it the URL
http://mydomain.com:80/myServlet?_fileName=filename.mp3&_useStreaming=true
its encoding this as
http%3A%2F%2Fmydomain.com%3A80%2FmyServlet%3F_fileName%3Dfilename.mp3%26_useStreaming%3Dtrue
but, all I wanted is to encode only '&' character ( as XML misinterprets this character with schemes ).
So, my question is .. is there any way that i can selectively encode the characters in the URL?
Any help wud be appriciated in this regard. :-)

I accept what you are saying.. URLEncoder encodes any string that's passed to it..
I infact have two different problems in hand.. The reason i mentioned only one above is because the solution to the first problem cud as well solve the second.. Anyway, here's the second problem ...
I'm recieving an XML from a server, where i get the URL info and i have to download the CONTENT from that URL.. Sample xml is given below
<Music>
<Singer>Tata Young</Singer>
<contentURL>http://myMusic.com/sexy naughty.mp3</contentURL>
</Music>
if you see the URL in the xml, that infact contains spaces in it.. I have my logic which checks if the given URL is a absolute URL or relative URL
if( relative URL)
I append "http://domain name:" stuff to make it absolute
else
i connect to the URL directly to get the Content
I'm using
URI i = new URI(str);
i.isAbsolute() method to determine whether its a absolute URL or not..
but this method doesn't seem to work for URLs that have spaces in them.. So, i encoded the URL and tried passing it to the method.. but it still doesn't work..
I probed into URI class itself and found out to my amazement that URI class assumes that URL contains only alpha numeric characters and few special characters like '+' , '/' , ':' etc..
Since the encoded URL has '%' character in it.. its not able to say that its a absolute URL.. Tht's the reason I asked for selective encoding.. ( say, which encodes only [space] character)..

Protecting Live Stream Encoding URL

We set up a Flash Media Server and we are trying to figure out how to protect our live encoding url. Seems like anyone with a Flash Media Encoder and who knew the location of our server could publish a live stream. Can we password protect this in any way?

Asa,
Are you able to share details of what the solution being developed by Adobe will involve, and which versions of FMS it will apply to (an update for 3.0, 3.5 or just a feature of 4.0)
Thanks,

WebDAV: Excel 2013 truncates the encoded URL at # (%23)

(originally posted in Open Spec forum, but was asked to repost here)
We encountered a problem on our existing WebDAV server with Office 2013. When a file name contains a number sign (aka hash, aka pound sign), Excel truncates the URL at that sign. Note that the URL is properly encoded, i.e. "#" is replaced
with %23.
Word and Powerpoint behave properly and have no issues opening files via URLs containing %23. E.g, for the URL http://server/otcsdav/nodes/1500722/doc1%23end.docx, Word first calls OPTIONS on otcsdav/nodes/1500722, then HEAD otcsdav/nodes/1500722/doc1%23end.docx,
then eventually a GET. The file opens successfully as "doc1#end.docx", gets locked, edited, updated and unlocked.
Excel, however, truncates the URL (http://server/otcsdav/nodes/1500722/excel1%23end.xls), and sends HEAD for /otcsdav/nodes/1500722/excel1, which, of course, returns 404.
Funny enough, double-encoding (i.e. to %2523) seems to work for Excel, but breaks everything else. I.e, with url = "otcsdav/nodes/1500722/excel1%2523end.xls" Excel sends HEAD for "/otcsdav/nodes/1500722/excel1%23end.xls", while Word will
send HEAD for the URL verbatim, i.e. "/otcsdav/nodes/1500722/doc1%2523end.docx"
Does anyone know it it's an Excel bug? is there anything we can do to circumvent this?
P.S.1 Excel 2010 works just fine, the issue first appeared in Excel 2013.
P.S.2 I know that Sharepoint doesn't support "#" in filenames. Our server is NOT Sharepoint, and "#" doesn't seem to be disallowed in WebDAV protocol.

Hi Maria,
This forum is used to discuss questions about Excel for developers, most probably the issue is related to code.
According to your description, it seems the issue doesn't meet the topic. It might be related to how the server analysis the URL and find the corresponding file.
I have moved this thread to "Where is the forum for" forum.
Thanks for your understanding.

George.

Encoding url in web dynpro

hi
i have creatend an abap webdynpro which send to an Employee pdf file with his details. In the url i have the a variable which contains the employee pernr and the program in the webdynpro controller calculate his details according to this pernr.
Is there a way to hid or encode this part in the url (cause i dont want that the user will have a way to chabge the pernr no in the url and watch other employee details ) ?
thanks
elad

You should generate a GUID for every employee in your database and save it in the same table. For instance you have employee 1234. You run FM GUID_CREATE and the GUID is DFEC37D77015D8F19D1B005056995118. Now save this GUID in the table where your employee master data is stored (use an append structure or so). When you generate the URL include this GUID instead of the pernr so something like http://my.system/wdapp/get_details?guid=DFEC37D77015D8F19D1B005056995118. In your application you can select the corresponding employee from the masterdata table as you saved the GUID with his pernr. I can't make it simpler than this
Rob's approach is the best way to go, security-wise! But it requires that all employees have a user ID in the system.
Cheers, Roel

RCVR_DETERMINATION.NO_RECEIVER_CASE_BE - encoded URL in WSDL

Hi
I have a SOAP to RFC scenario and generated the wsdl using PI 7.11 Integration Builder. The generated URL in the wsdl contains HTML encoded characters because the URL contains a URL e.g..
https://myhost/sap/xi/engine?type=entry&version=3.0&Sender.Service=BC_MY_SENDER&Interface=http%3A%2F%2Four_host%2Fsap%2Fabcd%5ESI_MY_PROCESS_OUTBOUND.
I have tried to use this URL in soapUI but it does not work and returns a message like the one in this thread's subject.
If you urldecode the url it works in soapUI. One of our clients who will use this web service to call us has to have the url encoded (with %) in it because of the url in a url. Problem is as soon as it hits PI, PI does not perform a urldecode and it fails.
Has anybody else encounter this problem?
Regards
Naas

How to encode URL in UTF-8 Using PL/SQL

Hello,
Platform:Oracle 9i, Sun Solaris,
Using Oracle 0i XML/XDK Iam able to generate xml data and post it to url via HTTP POST. But the xml data need to be encoded in utf-8. Does anyone know how to encode the xml data within PL/sql ?
Thanks for your time
Seema

Thanks for the suggestion. I like this approach as Java is more familiar to me than other languages.
Our DBA is out of touch today, so I could not grant the javauserpriv to my database user. I tried to run the script anyway in the chance that my user had the privs, and it seemed to have hung. I am now combing Oracle's site for more documentation so I can write some tests to see if I can get a basic Java object working. Under what heading would I find this?

How to make HTTP call to encoded URL?

Hi expert,
I need to make an HTTP call to this url submitted by
<form action='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/Blast.cgi' enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" method="POST" NAME="FormatForm" TARGET="Blast_Results_for_25530"><script src="../../../blastcgi.js"></script>
if i use the action url in the form tag, it does not work. it looks like it is encoded by the enctype=.... is it possible to connect to this url? thanks.

Do the first POST to Blast.cgi, with URL encoded parameters.
Get the Refresh header from the response.
Split the Refresh header into wait_time and next_url (find the ; and take two substrings)
currentThread.wait(wait_time * 1000);
next_url.openConnection().connect();
Either you'll get your response, or you'll be told to wait longer (I don't know the details of Blast.cgi, you might need to loop).

Problem translating servlet name from an encoded URL when using HTTPS

Hello:
I am experiencing a wierd issue when using WLS 5.1 with HTTPS and am hoping someone might
be able to shed some light...
I have deployed a web application and am using HTTPS.
So, a typical call to a servlet is
https://foo.com/web_app_context/servlet_name/servlet_arguments
The servlet is used to upload files from disk to a database and to also download the same.
Therefore, the servlet_arguments string contains the file name among other things.
The problem seems to arise when the file name contains either a space or an
underscore e.g. "file_name" or "file name". It is then typically encoded as
"file%20name" in
the URL.
So a call then looks like:
https://foo.com/web_app_context/servlet_name/file%20name
When this request is sent to WLS, it seems to truncate the servlet_name by a couple
of characters causing the request to fail.
This works fine using HTTP.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Prashant

The JNDI call is different when you call an EJB from inside the J2EE.
ctx = new InitialContext();
ref = ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/<JNDI-Name>");

Encode URL with h:outputLink

Hi All,
I have used an output Link to access a servlet.
But the problem lies in i want to encode my URL. something like
href='<%= renderResponse.encodeURL(renderRequest.getContextPath() + "/theme/exestyle.css") %>'
I am currently using the url in the following manner.
<h:outputLink value="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/RProcessorServlet" >

Hi,
Thanks for replying.
At a plain jsf level this does not pose a problem at all for me.
But in our project we use WSRP Portlets.Which has a producer and consumer framework.So any url we hit for file downloading hits the proxy servlet first which rewrites the URL and hits the actual servlet.
At a higher level this is the architecture we support.
Its a very simple requirement there is a pdf icon onclick of that i need to download the report from the database.
I can actually invoke a javascript to handle the url in the following way.
String encodedURL_dtd = response.encodeURL(request.getContextPath()+ "/DownloadServlet");
But here i fail to send the row data to the javascript to be send as request parameters.
So based on a similar post before i used <h:outputLink> in the following manner.
<h:datatable var="item" value="databean.list" >
<h:outputLink rendered="#{(item.strreportFormat == 'P') onclick="<context-path>/DownloadServlet">
<h:graphicImage value="/images/icon/icon_small_pdf.gif" alt="View Reports"></h:graphicImage>
<f:param id="id1" value="item.id" />
<f:param id="sys1" value="item.sysName" />
</h:outputLink>
</h:datatable>
I hope i could explain my query...
Given me a chance i would stick to my jsf application running in the test environment.But things don't work when they go to the framework level.
