To my mind it's the browser.
This is a simple trick I use when egating the caching in IE for instance.
Stick a space on the end of the url and IE thinks it's a new one but blindly
strips them before getting the same refreshed page.
This works with any server and any page on that server btw.

| Well, it's not PathHandler that's stripping spaces, so either Zope is,
| or maybe even your browser is.
| Anyone got any ideas?
|
| That said, handling of spaces and %20's in URLs isn't very well defined
| anyway, so I would avoid it if you can...

| Well, I think this is a bug with Zope. README.TXT is a text file,
| formatted so it will render nicely in structured text.
| It does this in the management interface for the PathHandler product,
| but the < and > aren't quoted properly.
| I wonder why that is?
|
| Hmmm... anyone know what happened to StructuredTextNG?
|
| Anyway, README.TXT is primarily designed as a text file, and
| <dtml-var path_to_handle> isn't very easy to read when viewing a
| text file ;-)
| So, I guess someone needs to fix Zope for at least one and maybe both of
| your problems to go away.
|
| Any ideas?
|
| cheers,
|
| Chris
