Hi guys, Please, read and refer the commit message. ;-) http://jakarta.apache.org/cvsweb/index.cgi/jakarta-slide/src/webdav/client/s rc/org/apache/webdav/util/URIUtil.java?rev=1.3&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs -markup (NOTICE). If you don't concat the example, multi-byte letters are disappeared as I've tested. :( What I insist is that let us to distinguish the rolse doing between character encoding and URI escaping. For that, let us do not handle them at the same time like URLUtil class. When we needd to do "character encoding", let us do it. It has an extensibility. Thank you for reading for a moment... Sung-Gu
