Question

I have problem with encode slash in url.

Problem:
from request in GSP page:
<a href=”http://foo.cz/myapp/page/show?url=home/gallery”>Gallery</a&gt;

I got:
http://foo.cz/myapp/page/show?url=home%2Fgallery

in address row in Internet browser.

Problem is with encode character from “/” to “%2F”.

Explanation:
this is link in my gsp file:
<a href=”http://foo.cz/myapp/page/show?url=home/gallery”>Gallery</a&gt;

after click request goes to controller:

def show ={
    def page = Page.findByUrl( params.url ) //it works
}

then I got gsp page in my Internet browser. All work fine, I got required page, but in adress row in Internet browser I saw:

http://foo.cz/myapp/page/show?url=home%2Fgallery

There is not character “/“, but encode “%2F“

Motivation
I want to set the url in UrlMapping.groovy to:

"/${url}" (controller:"page", action:"show")

and get:

http://foo.cz/myapp/home/gallery/

but there are problem with encode character “/”.

Finish
Can you help me please?

Thanks a lot Tom
