           Summary: HttpServlerResponse encodeURL handles some HTML Entities
                    incorrectly

A URL with entities get interpreted as a name anchor.

E.g. with the following URL 
localhost/px/to/home&#095;wml/go.wml?page_id=12

the ;jsessionid is inserted just before the # instead of just before the ?

HTML entity encoding is not a valid encoding for a url.

------- Additional Comments From david.cotter@alatto.com  2007-05-29 14:11 -------
The # in the example I gave is not an anchor tag but a HTML entity representing
an _ (underscore)

So instead of 
localhost/px/to/home_wml/go.wml?page_id=12

the link appears as 

localhost/px/to/home&#095;wml/go.wml?page_id=12

and so the # should not be interpreted as an anchor tag but as part of the HTML
entity for _ and should be ignored for the purposes of ;jsessionid insertion.

An unencoded # in a URL means the begining of the anchor tag.  
The ;jsessionid= must go before the anchor tag to be sent back to Tomcat.
