But somehow a variable containing a ' character encoded as %27 on the Location line is reproduced as \' . I don't know why!? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-03-15 09:22:12] shr@dmi.dk When rawurlencodeing this character ' three \\\ are inserted each time the encodeing is performed. And this adds up since the \ is coded too. It can cause a crash fairly quickly when encoding is done a lot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=3836&edit=1
