Just the contrary ... this is exactly the reason those characters
MUST be translated ! But ONLY IF they are part of a query value.
You should ALWAYS encode the values (and just for sure even the
names) BEFORE you concatenate them together and with the
http://server/script? part of the URL. ALWAYS !!!
After you added the path part it's already too late.
I usualy use something like this :
use CGI::Enurl; # http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz
$url = 'http://www.server.com/path/to/script.pl?' . enurl \%data;
Of course URI::Escape is OK as well :-)
