hi list,
i was very happy with the new features for database (utf8) character
support. and also with the fixed :url encoding according to W3C's
I18n.
but trying to implement those features in our applications i have a
problem and i think it might be a bug.
if i'm :url encoding an iso-8859-1 string "Demö" i get "Dem%c3%b6"
which looks fine for me according to [1].
if i'm :url encoding an utf8 string "Demö" i get "Dem%c3%83%c2%b6".
the reason seems to be that the utf8 character "ö" is utf8 converted
one more time before being encoded to the %HH hex value.
can anybody (maybe mast who implemented it) enlighten me, if this is a
bug or correct?
thanx in advance
