Skate it off, skate it off.
I have an issue with request.getParameter when I am trying to pass in a url encoded parameter. getParameter always assumes that I want the data decoded, but is there any way to get the parameter if I don't want the parameter decoded, rather I would like to decode it myself later?

What I have done right now is user getQueryString and parse out the particular parameter I want, but I'd like to know if there is a less hacky way to do this.

The particular issue is that I am passing in a path, but sometimes the path may contain the %2F character, which is the \ character, ruining the path.

Anyone know?
