LinkFreeze is adding whitespaces at the end of the url that is making invalid html markup

example:

<a href="www.site.com/link.asp?a=0&b=1">link</a>

is coming out

<a href="www.site.com/link~a~0~b~1.htm     ">link</a>

I've tried the latest v77 and it still is the same

any way of fixing this?

Can I see problem on-line?

Or send html-otput (without enabled LinkFreeze) for this page to support@helicontech.com

I figured out the problem, it's the &amp; replacement that my validator
recommended changing the '&' to '&amp;' in a href and form links...
http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/problems.html#amp

that's what i get for following html validation
if I change it back to the &, the spaces go away.

Hello,

Does this problem still exists in the 2.2.0.80 release ?

We encounter it on a Windows 2003 SP2 / IIS 6 server, and valid HTML links should be correctly recognized.

Regards,

More info :

It seems to happen only if there is at least one UTF-8 URLencoded char in the link :

<a class="pageActive" href="Documentation~p~1~typeDoc~0~motCle~Par+mot+cl%c3%a9.aspx        ">1</a> does not work, leading to a 0x80070057 HttpException...

<a class="pageActive" href="Documentation~p~1~typeDoc~0~motCle~Par+mot+cle.aspx        ">1</a> does work.

Hope this helps...

Please describe your problem in more details:
In what browser does this problem occur?
Does the problem persist if you change ~ to - ?
Is it possible to see the problem online?

Hello,

In fact, there are 2 problems.

First, LinkFreeze does rewrite URLs with HTML encoded ampersands, but lefts spaces at end of URLs (seems to try not changing response length).

Second, on a specific 2003/SP2 server running LinkFreeze v2.2.0.74, we encounter 0x80070057 HttpException where rewrited URLs contain UTF-8 URL encoded chars. It occurs with IE7 and FF2, and I can't change ~ to - since it's a real production site.

I can't reproduce this behavior with the same site on another 2003/SP2 machine using LinkFreeze 2.1.0.63, nor or my XP/SP2 development machine with LinkFreeze v2.2.0.80.

LinkFreeze is not capable of changing the length of response, that's why it replaces & with spaces. It's not a mistake but a workaround.

Build 74 incorrectly works with UTF-8 characters. Please update to the latest build.
