How to get the request url from HttpServletRequest
http, servlets, uri, url
Solution
"The fragment identifier functions differently than the rest of the URI: namely, its processing is exclusively client-side with no participation from the server." Wikipedia about the Frament Identifiert

Problem
Say i make a get request like this: ``` GET http://cotnet.diggstatic.com:6000/js/loader/443/JS_Libraries,jquery|Class|analytics|lightbox|label|jquery-dom|jquery-cookie?q=hello#frag HTTP/1.0 Host: cotnet.diggstatic.com:6000 ``` My servlet takes request like this: HttpServletRequest req; When i debug my server and execute, i get the following: ``` req.getRequestURL().toString() = "http://cotnet.diggstatic.com:6000/js/loader/443/JS_Libraries,jquery%7cClass%7canalytics%7clightbox%7clabel%7cjquery-dom%7cjquery-cookie" req.getRequestURI() = "/js/loader/443/JS_Libraries,jquery%7cClass%7canalytics%7clightbox%7clabel%7cjquery-dom%7cjquery-cookie" req.getQueryString() = "q=hello" ``` How does one get the fragment information ? Also, when i debug the request, i see a uri_ field of type java.net.URI which has the fragment information. This is exactly what i want. How can i get that ?
