title: How to put whitespaces at url for request
body: <p>I need to pass some parameters to url. Later I will extract it and I need exactly this words.</p>
  
  <p>It's at <code>jsp</code> page:</p>
  
  <pre><code>     &lt;li&gt;
            &lt;a href="&lt;c:url value="/apartments?select=threestars"/&gt;"&gt;&lt;fmt:message key="nav.dropdown.threestars"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
       &lt;/li&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I need exactly set <code>three stars</code> instead <code>threestars</code>, for later parsing.</p>
  
  <p>How to put this whitespace, that it be compatible for get method, and was possibly to extract:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>String type = request.getParameter("select");</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>And value of type => <code>three stars</code>.</p>
  
  <p>How to solve <strong><em>this issue</em></strong>?</p>
