note 72597 added to function.rawurlencode

I had serious trouble with local Windows paths containing umlauts on my Apache 2 / Windows NT machine. Apache could not find any of those files if I just used rawurlencode. It's not noted anywhere here, but you fix this by simply making your path utf8 first: rawurlencode(utf8_encode($str)); ---- Server IP: 217.13.201.10 Probable Submitter: 80.145.37.56 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rawurlencode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/72597 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72597/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72597/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72597/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72597/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72597/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72597/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72597 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/72597 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
