Result of testing of Francois' page with Netscape 3.0:
- The charset in the document was ignored; consequently, the
%C3%B4 displayed as A with tilde + Acute Accent
- The same display is used in the lower lefthand corner with the
nonencoded URL, and in the Location: area when following the URL.
- The %-encoded version displayed with percent signs.
My conclusion: Unencoded UTF-8 URLs are not supported, but are "mostly
harmless" (that is, they just display bizarrely); encoded UTF-8 URLs are
supported and displayed with encoding.
Pair of fact beats house of theory - thanks, Francois!
