无法发送带有＃in参数的Ajax请求

Question

I am trying to send ajax request. following is the code

var parameters = '?dbSid='+dbSid+ '&dbPort='+dbPort+ '&dbIpAddress='+dbIpAddress+    '&dbUserName='+dbUserName+ '&dbPassword='+dbPassword;

new Ajax.Request('../pages/invoke-oracletestAgentCred.jsp'+parameters,   {onSuccess:successFunction , onFailure:errorFunction });  

If I send dbPassword as abcd then it works fine.

But when i send dbPassword as #abc it fails and sets the dbPassword to blank.

Please help to solve the issue.

Thanks, Anjali

Answer 1

The # character has special meaning in URLs (it indicates the start of the document fragment).

Make sure you encode your URL components (with encodeURIComponent ).

Answer 2

Have you tried using encodeUriComponent?

var parameters = '?dbSid='+encodeUriComponent(dbSid)+ '&dbPort='+encodeURIComponent(dbPort)+ '&dbIpAddress='+encodeURIComponent(dbIpAddress)+ '&dbUserName='+encodeURIComponent(dbUserName)+ '&dbPassword='+encodeURIComponent(dbPassword);

new Ajax.Request('../pages/invoke-oracletestAgentCred.jsp'+parameters, {onSuccess:successFunction , onFailure:errorFunction });

The reason a # breaks your url is that a # is used to go to a anchor in a page. That's why a browser will cut off any url at an #.
