[jira] [Created] (TOBAGO-2023) An anchor href with mailto: entry must not use + to escape spaces

Udo Schnurpfeil created TOBAGO-2023:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: An anchor href with mailto: entry must not use + to escape spaces 
                 Key: TOBAGO-2023
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOBAGO-2023
             Project: MyFaces Tobago
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Themes
            Reporter: Udo Schnurpfeil
            Assignee: Udo Schnurpfeil


When using

 
{code:java}
<a href="mailto:xyz@apache.org?subject=Nice Framework">Mail</a>
{code}
the Mail client will open with Subject: Nice+Framework. This is also for the mail body.

 

 

The reason is, that in this case not normal URL encode can apply. [RFC 6068|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6068] Section 5 the 3nd text block  suggests to avoid using '+' and 'space', but using %20 and %2B instead.
