URLs have different parts or components. The different parts use different escaping rules.
foo.com/?next=/some/folder foo.com: uses DNS escaping rules /: uses path escaping rules, which allows / as a path separator next=%2Fsome%2Ffolder: uses query parameter escaping rules, which does not allow "/" Stuff after a "?" but before a "#" are query parameters, and it follows different escaping rules than the path part.
