And I don't think we support it, no. I've been having a look at this, largely for my own curiousity. I've managed to add some sort of half-working punycode, but it has raised a question: Are nsurls supposed to be UTF-8? I don't think they are, which means the urlencoding it does might not necessarily be consistent. Moreover, the scheme and host are getting urlencoded when they shouldn't be (although this is easy to fix). Chris

And? First this seems to me to have no bearing on what I posted, so why quote it? ... and second the OP mentioned that the sites with and without the accent are different sites so it's hardly a surprise that the unaccented URL "does resolve". -- Jeremy C B Nicoll - my opinions are my own.

Accents in URLs
Just came across this URL which opens in 'other' browsers but not in RISC OS NetSurf here. Okay, I'll admit to using an old version (3.1 #1298) but no doubt I'll be told if later versions do cope. ;-) http://dahlström.net/svg/favicon/favicon.html (which StronEd doesn't but Pluto translates to http://dahlstr%F6m.net/svg/favicon/favicon.html) tried this http://dahlström.net/svg/favicon/favicon.html and this http://dahlström.net/svg/favicon/favicon.html Without the umlaut it is a different web site. Daft, eh? http://dahlstrom.net/svg/favicon/favicon.html
