Thomas,

I am using version 1.1. I retested the code and I am still having the problem. I capture the network trace this time.

When run as a browser control the http request is formatted as follows:
GET /test.asp?te/st HTTP/1.1
Connection: Keep-Alive
Host: localhost:8080

When run as a stand alone app the http request is formatted as follows:
GET /test.asp?te\st HTTP/1.1
Accept: */*
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows NT)
Host: localhost:8080
Connection: Keep-Alive

Again in both cases I used the following code:

import java.applet.Applet;
import java.applet.AppletContext;
import java.awt.*;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class AppletTest extends Applet
{
   private void connect()
   {
          this.add(new Label("test"));
      try
      {
         URL url = new URL("http://localhost:8080/test.asp?te\\st");
         URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
         InputStream in = conn.getInputStream();
         in.close();
      }
      catch (Exception e)
      {
         this.add(new Label(e.getMessage()));
         e.printStackTrace();
      }
   }

   public void start()
   {
      connect();
   }
}

Here is the code for the stand alone app:

package AppletTestDriver;

/**
 * Summary description for Class1.
 */
public class Class1
{
        public Class1()
        {
                //
                // TODO: Add Constructor Logic here
                //
        }

        /** @attribute System.STAThread() */
        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
                AppletTest applet = new AppletTest();
                applet.start();
        }
}
