CherryPy does that because that's not a syntactically valid interpretation of the given URL. From http://rfc.net/rfc2396.html#s3.3. "The path may consist of a sequence of path segments separated by a single slash "/" character. Within a path segment, the characters "/", ";", "=", and "?" are reserved." > I can use the default method, but that would add a lot of joining (in > case of many '/' on the 'search string'). > > Is there a better way to treat that? At the least, escape the slashes which are not intended to be path segment separators in the original, encoded URL. Use the "% HEX HEX" encoding to turn: http://site.mp/search/http://pythondance.com into: http://site.mp/search/http%3A%2F%2Fpythondance.com This can be done with urllib.quote("http://pythondance.com";, safe=""). Another, even safer possibility would be to send the embedded URL as a querystring argument, rather than a path segment: http://site.mp/search?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpythondance.com Robert Brewer System Architect Amor Ministries [EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
