http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34602 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-03-11 17:02 ------- This bug is a killer for me using PHP and it`s URLENCODE function. Basically this encodes a space as a literal '+' in the url and escapes a literal '+' as %2b, the problem is that once we hit the RewriteRule the space is still encoded as a literal '+' and the literal '%2b' is decoded to be a literal '+' aswell. As you can imagine the RewriteMap solution dosen`t work and I`m left with no solution but to double encode which is horrible. Is there a reason that one must decode the hex entities before the use of the RewriteRules and is it due to the 'being a path' way of thinking as alot more URLs are not only used as a path to a resource but to pass information aswell. This is what i`d like to see: # accept a-zA-Z and %2b(escaped '+') RewriteRule ^resource/([a-z]|%2b)+$ /resource.ext?data=$1 [NC] This would still fail on say '/resource/info%' as it`s not the sequence %2b etc and would use the first matching rule for something like: RewriteRule ^resource/([a-z]|%2|%2b)+$ /resource.ext?data=$1 [NC] '/resource/%2'. I`d love to hear everyone's opinion on this as I`m not sure if it would be the correct way to handle it or if it would lead to security concerns etc, If there is agreement I`ll have a stab at implementing it and see where it leads, if it is fundamentaly wrong and you have some resources I would love to know that too.
