title: Passing encoded url string containing %3A (colon) to an APEX page truncates everting after the last %3A
body: <p>I am using ORACLE APEX 5.0.1</p>
  
  <p>I am passing an url string to an APEX application where I have encoded all special caracters, if there is one or more <code>%3A</code> (colon) in the url APEX seemes to truncate the value I am passing.
  This affects only the last variable I am passing and only the remaining part after the last <code>%3A</code>, but if I place a <code>%3A</code> at the very end of the url it works  in APEX. 
  I have asked about this in other forums and it seems to be a relative unknown issue in APEX, haven't got any relevant answer that explains the issue.</p>
  
  <p>This example pass values to tre fields</p>
  
  <pre><code>"...../apex/f?p=118:32:::::P32_XX,P32_YY,P32_ZZ,:100030,486,VMKF%3AU%202012%3A50"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><code>P32_XX</code>, and <code>P32_YY</code> get the value ok
  <code>P32_ZZ</code> only get the value <code>"VMKF:U 2012"</code>
  but if I put a <code>%3A</code> at the end of the url like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>"...../apex/f?p=118:32:::::P32_XX,P32_YY,P32_ZZ,:100030,486,VMKF%3AU%202012%3A50%3A"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>it works ok and <code>P32_ZZ</code> gets the value <code>"VMKF:U 2012:50".</code></p>
  
  <p>I have tested this in Windows Explorer 11, Google Crom and Mozilla Firefox (latest version) with the same behavior.</p>
  
  <p>And I have the same behaviour if I use a literal colon (<code>:</code>)</p>
  
  <p>Appreciate the help</p>
