[java] How do I pass multiple parameter in URL?

I am trying to figure out how to pass multiple parameters in a URL. I want to pass latitude and longitude from my android class to a java servlet. How can I do that?

URL url;
double lat=touchedPoint.getLatitudeE6() / 1E6;
double lon=touchedPoint.getLongitudeE6() / 1E6;
url = new URL("http://10.0.2.2:8080/HelloServlet/PDRS?param1="+lat+lon);

In this case output (written to file) is 28.53438677.472097. This is working but I want to pass latitude and longitude in two separate parameters so that my work at server side is reduced. If it is not possible how can I at least add a space between lat & lon so that I can use tokenizer class to get my latitude and longitude. I tried following line but to no avail.

    url = new URL("http://10.0.2.2:8080/HelloServlet/PDRS?param1="+lat+" "+lon);
output- Nothing is written to file
        url = new URL("http://10.0.2.2:8080/HelloServlet/PDRS?param1="+lat+"&?param2="+lon);
output- 28.534386 (Only Latitude)
        url = new URL("http://10.0.2.2:8080/HelloServlet/PDRS?param1="+lat+"?param2="+lon);
output- 28.532577?param2=77.502996

My servlet code is as follows:

req.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
resp.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
final String par1 =  req.getParameter("param1");
final String par2 = req.getParameter("param2");
FileWriter fstream = new FileWriter("C:\\Users\\Hitchhiker\\Desktop\\out2.txt");
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fstream);
out.write(par1);
out.append(par2);
out.close();

Also I wanted to the know is this the most safe and secured way to pass the data from android device to server.

I do not know much about Java but URL query arguments should be separated by "&", not "?"

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986 is good place for reference using "sub-delim" as keyword. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_string is another good source.

You can pass multiple parameters as "?param1=value1&param2=value2"

But it's not secure. It's vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Attack.

Your parameter can be simply replaced with a script.

Have a look at this article and article

You can make it secure by using API of StringEscapeUtils

static String   escapeHtml(String str) 
          Escapes the characters in a String using HTML entities.

Even using https url for security without above precautions is not a good practice.

Have a look at related SE question:

Is URLEncoder.encode(string, "UTF-8") a poor validation?
