Oh. My favorite discussion.
This URL works fine: http://åäö.x42.com/
And this: http://this is an url with spaces.x42.com/
And to top this; I must admit that I love weird urls.
Actually; I have had some trouble with the åäö-chars sent by macintosh; and
tried to do a serios hack into mod_rewrite to circumwent this. I've not
reached a solution by just using external rewriting; does this send the
hostname?
I love apache and especially mod_rewrite for this flexibility and actually
the freedom to allow these urls.
Yeah, I know; RFC1738 <http://$rfc(1738).x42.com/> does not consider these
chars as safe. Is there a replacement rfc that do?
Please don't ever consider taking this away. Ever.

You still need -funsigned-char to make it correct... I'm about to make
that the default on linux.

Yeah. I know about this. Other proxys tested did work. Sorry.
It is depending on people being nice when they implement things here;
yes.

squid 1.2beta22 does not let any of these through. it says "Invalid

Of course, using Bind 8.1.2, I don't seem to be able to resolve any of
those :)
