(2) Isn't the violation pretty obvious? I don't really know how to begin describing it, I mean, the whole algorithm is in its entirety one big violation, no? (3) It is my understanding that, notwithstanding your experience with IE, there are pages depending on this. However, I may be mistaken. If you have detailed research on this topic, that would be most welcome. I'm happy to change this algorithm in response to such data. (4, 5, etc) The algorithm violates HTTP in a huge bunch of ways, backslashes aren't the half of it. If I recall correctly, this algorithm was based directly on one of the prominent implementations. I do not recall which. I'm happy to update it if there is clear evidence that the current algorithm is not compatible with legacy content. As a general note, please file just one bug per issue.
