I am trying to redirect to a new page using JavaScript. I need to redirect to page:



DESIRED LINK where to redirect:
http://localhost/mypage.html?myparam1=A&myparam2=B



JAVASCRIPT CODE:
Javascript code to redirect page to desired URL:
window.location.assign('http://localhost/mypage.html?myparam1=A&myparam2=B');



Result:



Unfortunately, all & were replaced by & as shown here:



http://localhost/mypage.html?myparam1=A&myparam2=B



Which cannot be parsed properly by underlying server (Java & Thymeleaf),

and unfortunately it does not work when parsed by J2EE.



How can I force to redirect to a page without replacing & with &amp?

  • The code you have will not transform & into & that must be done by something else on your site.

Why do you use assign for redirect ? Use simply window.location.href like you previous code.



Another do you try to escape & char ?
Do you use XSS prenvent function in your code ?
