CGI parameters use default encoding instead of UTF-8

           Summary: CGI parameters use default encoding instead of UTF-8
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.18
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Servlets:CGI
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: kws@qad.com
                CC: kws@qad.com


The URLEncode.encode("") API has been deprecated because it uses the default 
system encoding. All application/x-www-form-urlencoded encoding should be done 
in UTF-8.

Code: CGIServlet.java

Fix:  URLEncode.encode("","UTF-8")
