how to get "/r/n" in servlet after decoding a escaped URL

843841Oct 13 2006 — edited Oct 13 2006

I am creating a servlet request in Javascript and need to send "/r/n" as value for one request parameter.

So I am doing escape(myURL) in Javascript and sending it to servlet.
escape converts "/r/n" to "%0D%0A".
Now in servlet I am using URLDecoder.decode() with UTF-8 but this translates these chars to "ctrl M".
I am not sure which char encoding type I should use to get "/r/n" chars back in servlets or any other way to do this job.

Any pointers highly appericated.
TIA,Sachin
