I have a code like this:

URL url = new URL("http://foo.com/?param=paj%E9");
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
...

However, it seems like the openConnection is supressing the "%E9" part of the url, and the server ends up receiving a request http://foo.com?param=paj

Am I forgetting to apply any different setting for this to work properly?

Thanks!

EDIT: The url "http://foo.com/?param=paj%E9" is already encoded (from http://foo.com/?param=pajé), and this should be the request the server should receive. If I try to access http://foo.com/?param=paj%E9 straight from the browser, it works as expected. If I URLEncode "paj%E9", I'll be double-encoding the parameter, and the server would see "paj%E9" instead "pajé" upon decoding the value. I'm actually trying to build a proxy, and therefore I receive the urls already encoded. The problem is that whenever I pass such an encoded parameter to be requested using HttpURLConnection, it simply ignores the encoded part (like %E9).

You can use the following code URLEncoder.encode("中文", "utf-8")

You need to use java.net.URI class to encode your URL instead of handle it on your own. Chek this: HTTP URL Address Encoding in Java
