Difference in URL decode/encode UTF-8 between Java and JS/AS3 (bug!?)

问题

I am having an issue URL decoding a UTF-8 string in Java that is encoded either with Javascript or Actionscript 3. I've set up a test case as follows:

The string in question is Produktgröße

When I encode with JS/AS3 I get the following string:

escape('Produktgröße')

Produktgr%F6%DFe

When I unescape this with JS I get no change

unescape('Produktgr%F6%DFe')

Produktgr%F6%DFe

So, by this I assume that JS isn't encoding the string properly??

The following JSP produces this outupt

<%@page import="java.net.URLEncoder"%>
<%@page import="java.net.URLDecoder"%>
<%=(URLDecoder.decode("Produktgr%F6%DFe","UTF-8"))%><br/>
<%=(URLEncoder.encode("Produktgröße","UTF-8"))%><br/>
<%=(URLEncoder.encode("Produktgröße"))%><br/>
<%=(URLDecoder.decode(URLEncoder.encode("Produktgröße")))%><br/>
<%=(URLDecoder.decode(URLEncoder.encode("Produktgröße"),"UTF-8"))%><br/>

Produktgr?e

Produktgr%C3%B6%C3%9Fe

Produktgröße

Any idea why I'm having this disparity with the languages and why JS/AS3 isn't behaving as I expect it to?

Thanks.

回答1:

escape is a deprecated function and does not correctly encode Unicode characters. Use encodeURI or encodeURIComponent, the latter probably being the method most suitable for your needs.

回答2:

Javascript is URL encoding your string using Latin-1 charset. Java is URL encoding it using UTF-8.

The URL encoding is really just replacing the characters/bytes that it doesn't recognise. For example, even if you were to stick with ASCII characters, ( would be encoded as %28. You have the additional problem of character sets when you start using non-ASCII characters (any thing longer than 7 bits).

I have been struggling with this problem for hours on end... My problem was a JQuery Ajax call like:

return $.ajax({
        url: '/author!getAuthorContent.action',
        type: 'GET',
        data : {author:name, 'content_type': ct || 'all', 'start': start || 0}
    });

'name' is a String which contains special characters like Jérôme-Serrano

For some reasons the way JS/JQuery was encoding these kind of special characters was incompatible and I couldn't decode it on Java BackEnd...

The solution was:

Encode on JS side using var econded = encodeURIComponent(name);
Decode them on Java side using String decoded = java.net.URLDecoder.decode(econded ,"UTF-8");
