I don't know... I am far from a URL expert, but in discussions about how to encode IPv6 literals in URIs and IRIs, the square brackets don't seem to be enough. The percent sign also has to be encoded as a %25 and/or changed to another character.


Does this apply to URLs, too?

Hi Margaret,

Why not ? We are using the [] to enclose the IPv6 address, so then the %
will be also inside the square brackets, right ?

Hi All,

 We're having a discussion on URIs and IRIs in the IESG that has led
 me to realize that the URL literal IPv6 address format described in
 RFC 2732 does not contain any provision for including a zone ID.  I
 don't think that we could simply add a "%zone-id" to the end of the
 IP address, because % is a special character in URLs.

 Thoughts?  Is this something we should update?

 Margaret
