Hi all,

There have been a number of outstanding bug reports on proxy concerning mod_proxy and URLs that have %xx escaping in them.

For proxy's internal use, it would need to remove the escaping of the URL so that a request for http://whatever/%65 and a request for http://whatever/A would be interpreted as the same thing.

But - for actually fetching the downstream URL, the proxy should in theory send the URL unchanged as it was delivered in all it's escaped glory from the client.

Is my thinking on this correct? Is there a reason why proxy might not want to send the raw URL as is to a downstream server?

Regards,
Graham
