Yes I understand but it's not always so clear cut especially not when you can break a lot of scripts. There is always a trade-off between backwards compatibility and doing the right thing. Is this configurable in php.ini? I'm not familiar with the patch itself (couldn't find the CVS diff).
This url explains why it's considered a good thing: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/appendix/notes.html#h-B.2.2 If this breaks someone's scripts, that's their fault.. >:-) (ie. they should be using urlencode() on the urls if they contain illegal chars..) --Jani At 19:21 3/4/2001, Andi Gutmans wrote:
