[Sorry, I forgot to change the subject line. I'm resending this so it
threads correctly in the archives.]
In my initial message, I noted that the entering the following string
into a web form:
M=FC! (second letter is umlauted 'u')
Causes the web browser to encode it as follows:
M%FC%21
This doesn't look really correct. M=FC! as a URL encoded (Hex
bytes) string=
should read M%C3%BC%21.
Indeed, the UTF-8 chart I am looking at lists %C3%BC as the way to
hex-encode the umlauted 'u'. However, every web browser I've tried
sends that character as %FC.
Even if the web browser sends %C3%BC for the character, though,
decodeURLComponent doesn't interpret it correctly... the following
command:
msgBox decodeURLComponent("%C3%BC")
...yields a dialog box containing a square root symbol and a degree
symbol (values C3 and BC from the MacRoman encoding).
