Receiving parameter problem in Netscape browser

Question

Hello, suppose a variable, street, has the value of
"1111 University Drive", and I pass this variable from
form A to form B by using the procedure call:
PORTAL30.wwa_app_module.set_target(....);
When I use a Netscape browser, form B will only receive "1111"
instead of "1111 University Drive". I know the problem exists
because of the blank spaces, but I don't know how can I fix it
so that form B will receive the correct value instead of the
partial value? This problem does not exist in Microsoft IE.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi Nilan,
To get round this problem you need to substitute any spaces with
their hex representation. To fix them use PL/SQL command replace
e.g.
street becomes replace(street, ' ', '%20')
1111 University Drive will appear in the URL as 1111%20University%20Drive
both netscape and ie should interpret this correctly.
