Sebb created FINERACT-2664:
------------------------------
Summary: Invalid character in URL fragment
Key: FINERACT-2664
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-2664
Project: Apache Fineract
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Docs
Reporter: Sebb
The website contains several links of the form:
https://matrix.to/#/#apache-fineract-home:matrix.org
These are not valid URLs according to RFC 3986 [1].
This is because the character "#" is not allowed in a fragment.
According to the RFC, a fragment cannot contain any of the 'gen-delims'
characters apart from
":" / "@" / "/" / "?"
This leaves the following gen-delims as invalid:
"#" / "[" / "]"
[Unfortunately, many URL validators do not check this.]
Ideally the "#" within the fragment should be encoded.
