The plugin does not decode the path, only the query parameters.[1] I'm not clear on passing utf8 on the path -- I thought you would have to url-encode it, but maybe the browser will do that. Although, I'm not clear how it knows what encoding to use. [1] also note that it doesn't decoded the body params, so if you access those via the body_parameters request method they won't be decoded. Accessing them via ->parameters is ok, though. -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent from my iMutt _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
