Well, thanks for your reply. Thought, it's not working the way I wanted. After sniffing the network with wireshark, what I could see it in hex values *25 30 30* for '%00'. Seems(to me), while trying to download something with wget, it converts the URL in browser-like format. If so, in that case, it may not be possible to include a NULL character with wget. -- Thanks, Sagar Belure _______________________________________________ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
