 hum... I don't get what you mean :(
 there is no parameter to the urlencode php function, isn't it ?

 I tried :
echo "<html><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" 
content=\"0;url=http://www.google.fr/search?q=".utf8_encode($query)."\"></html>";
 which acts the same, aka "%E9"

 and
$query = utf8_encode($_POST["query"]);
 which is worse than ever :)
 it produces : %20t%C3%83%C6%92%C3%82%C2%A9   %-)

 can you clarify what you mean when you say "use the ie param" and "encoding with oe".

 sorry if those questions seems sily, but I'm not a heavy php coder ;)

TIA,
