Thanks.

That URI also does not work with Internet Explorer.  Both work when
non-ASCII characters are percent-encoded in the domain name, path, file,
query, and fragment but not as URI delimiters.  Your URI has
percent-encoding for the "://" delimiters that are supposed to follow
the "http", which is not allowed.

Not so simple. On my IE 9, I couldn't get the flashing line until I replaced all percent encodings with the corresponding ASCII characters. I got a total rejection when the URI delimiter was percent-encoded, but as I worked my way down the chain, Photobucket kept telling me the image had been deleted until I finally replaced the last one, when it suddenly discovered it.

On the other hand, Wikipedia pages do generally work as long as the URI delimiter and domain name are not percent-encoded. So perhaps some servers are smarter than others.
