Re: Tapestry URLEncoder

[George Christman <gc...@cardaddy.com>]

So do you believe if I use a custom implementation for
PageActivationRequestParameter with the use of the java URLEncoder

the past week without any issues, but that's not to say once it's in
production the user base won't find a way to break something.
