You may want to take this issue up on [EMAIL PROTECTED] Personally I've never seen this kind of character encoding, and my reading of Section 8 at http://www.w3.org/TR/charmod/ and RFC 2718, Section 2.2.5, seems to indicate that this isn't a recommended practice. OTOH, IIRC the apache source claims to support utf8 extension(s) of www-urlencoded ASCII, so if people really are using such encodings, supporting "%uXXXX" in ap_unescape_url shouldn't hurt server performance at all. In any case, putting together a patch of ap_unescape_url along the lines of CGI::Util's utf8_chr() can't hurt :-). -- Joe Schaefer
