> I have a form with an input field. If a user enters a phrase surrounded

> For example:

> I enter "have fun" in the form.
>
> When I submit and inspect params I see:
>
> {"q"=>"have fun", "Search"=>"Search", "controller"=>"search",
> "action"=>"index"}
>
> I look at request.query_string and see:
> &q=%22have+fun%22+&Search=Search
>
> Now if I enter the same phrase but have a space in front of it the
> quotes come through:
>
> {"q"=>" \"have fun\"", "Search"=>"Search", "controller"=>"search",
> "action"=>"index"}
>
> &q=+%22have+fun%22&Search=Search

> Can anyone explain why this is and if there is a workaround?
It's a problem with the version or rack you're using...
https://github.com/rack/rack/commit/dae12e088592ee69545b5f2f81b87f4959859164
Upgrade to a later version that has the above change in it...
