note 84025 added to reserved.variables

@SilentChris at gmail dot com - I'm seeing the same thing but I'm starting to believe the issue is not PHP but Apache. It looks like Apache's rewrite module is double encoding strings with a '%' sign if they are followed by two or more other characters. So %25 translates correctly to '%' %25b translates correctly to '%b' %25ba translates incorrectly to � which when itself is run through urlencode translates to '%BA'. Further letters translate correctly. %25bac produces '�c', etc. It only appears to happen on the first instance of %25 because further items are translated correctly. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 65.171.226.136 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/84025 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84025/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84025/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84025/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84025/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84025/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84025/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84025 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/84025 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
