I wonder if the changes that allow for Interntional domain names, with various Unicode characters I don't even know how to get out of my keyboard, *ALSO* made _ suddenly be legal... Just a hypothesis. I gotta say that Apache being current on RFCs and IE being broken seems a lot more likely to this naive reader... :-) And you have to admit that if various characters that my keyboard can't even produce are valid URL characters, then outlawing '_' is kinda bogus... Hmmmmm. Maybe I should try to register l_i_e.com :-) God knows somebody probably tried to use that to get to me once. The joy of reading and memorizing RFCs is that the dang things keep changing in non-BC ways, and one (read: Richard Lynch) can end up posting "facts" that are no longer true. :-( -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
