http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5802 --- Comment #5 from Philip Taylor <excors@gmail.com> 2008-06-26 14:07:31 --- As far as I can see, no browser handles %uXXXX in a special way - the real issue is that <a href="?x%25y%z w"> on http://example.com/ resolves as "http://example.com/?x%25y%z%20w" (in IE6, FF3, O9.5, S3), i.e. it does not percent-encode the lone "%". If I understand HTML5 correctly, it currently says that should become "http://example.com/?x%25y%25z%20w" instead (since the lone "%" does not match the <query> production). That means that HTML5 says <a href="?%u1234"> resolves to "...?%25u1234", which breaks servers that expect the UA to resolve it to "...?%u1234" instead. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
