PRESERVING SPECIAL CHARACTERS IN AN ENCODED IDENTIFIER
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of encoding a resource identifier, comprising:
- detecting the resource identifier to be encoded;
identifying one or more special characters in the detected resource identifier;
using a processor to encode the detected resource identifier at least in part by preserving the identified one or more special characters in a resulting encoded resource identifier corresponding to the detected resource identifier; and
utilizing the encoded resource identifier in place of the detected resource identifier.

Abstract
A resource identifier to be encoded is detected. One or more special characters in the detected resource identifier are identified. The detected resource identifier is encoded at least in part by preserving the identified one or more special characters in a resulting encoded resource identifier corresponding to the detected resource identifier. The encoded resource identifier is utilized in place of the detected resource identifier.

16. A system for encoding a resource identifier, comprising:
-
a processor configured to; detect the resource identifier to be encoded, identify one or more special characters in the detected resource identifier; encode the detected resource identifier at least in part by preserving the identified one or more special characters in a resulting encoded resource identifier corresponding to the detected resource identifier; and utilize the encoded resource identifier in place of the detected resource identifier; and a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions.

17. A method of decoding an encoded resource identifier, comprising:
-
receiving a request for a resource associated with the encoded resource identifier; identifying one or more locations of one or more special characters in the encoded resource identifier; using a processor to decode the encoded resource identifier at least in part by utilizing the identified one or more locations of the one or more special characters in the encoded resource identifier; and utilizing a decoded version of the encoded resource identifier to obtain the resource. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
