I did some brute force only to test, like this:

<meta name="csrf-param" content="authenticity_token"/>
<meta name="csrf-token" content="<%= CGI.escape form_authenticity_token
%>"/>

some characters are escaped, but now the link_to ... :method => delete is
not working anymore (the user session is killed).

If I user URI.escape the plus sign is not escaped.

So, i'm still at point zero.

Thanks,
Ernesto
