Martin Panter added the comment: PEP 3333 defers to a draft CGI specification for PATH_INFO and QUERY_STRING: <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-coar-cgi-v11-03>. (Dunno why it didn’t reference the final RFC 3875 instead, published 2004.) Anyway, both draft and final RFCs say “PATH_INFO is not URL-encoded”, but “the QUERY_STRING variable contains a URL-encoded search or parameter string”.
Graham, maybe you are seeing Latin-1 code points in PATH_INFO that have been translated from the %XX URL syntax, and QUERY_STRING retaining the original %XX syntax. ---------- nosy: +martin.panter _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16679> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
