Wt

I've just tested using.

Wt::WApplication::setInternalPath();

it seems to work when there is only one URL parameter and it appears to be broken if there are more than one.

eg: I request /foo?bar=1

app->setInternalPath(foo);

turns the url into /foo

but if I request /foo?bar=1&var=3

app->setInternalPath(foo);

turns the url into /foo&var=3

I am not sure if setInternalPath is meant to preserve or remove the URL parameters in this case but it looks like a bug either way.

you could implement one of the solutions in this stackoverflow question.

and use doJavascript() or require() from wt

Thank you for your finding. At first, I thought changing internal path would preserve the whole parameter keys.

Well, this can be done by calling setInternalPath n times where n is the number of parameter keys.

Hey Long,

As creative that may be, I suggest we fix the issue before you rely on broken behavior :-)

Setting/removing internal paths is supposed to preserve parameters. So there is definitely a bug in the described behaviour (what version of Wt was that, Alex?)

I would suggest we create an additional API in WApplication to reset the query string (which works only in HTML5 browsers, but that's plenty good these days). Can you file a bug and/or feature request for this?

It was Wt version 3.3.3

sorry to post so many time after the last post, you already implemented a solution to that question?
