If you double encode - you'll receive it cake side singly encoded. However, if you're getting a 404 it's most likely because of something in your app, not cake (check your logs). An important point which I suspect you haven't considered: You are never, ever going to receive the anchor (#xyz) on the server. So your example youtube link is just going to point to the user's page, no the specific video indicated by the hash args. If your problem is in anyway "losing data decoding" related - use a different encoding/decoding method such as base64 - or just don't put the url in the url (or use javascript to move the url argument to populate a field in the form, or etc. etc.) hth, AD Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
