If I enter non-ASCII characters in an URL, my browser converts the string to UTF-8 and then %NN-escapes non-ASCII bytes. A quick glance at the HTTP and URL/URI RFCs (2616 § 3.2.1 and 2396 § 2.1) suggests that this is a standard behaviour, except for the choice of the charset for the characters-to-octets translation, which is unspecified by the standards. -- Lionel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
