URL encoding

[Árni Arent <ar...@siminn.is>]

Hi,

My webdav client (using slide) is trying to connect to a URL that is 
something like this:
http://myhost.com/users/john@myhost.com/images

The path being "/users/john@myhost.com/images"

The '@' character is causing errors. Appearently, the webdav server does 
not like how it's encoded... but the client library converts this 
character into '%2540'... before the http request is sent. I sniffed the 
packets using ethereal, and discovered that using another webdav client 
the server accepts '@' encoded as '%40'.

I tried to replace the '@' with '%40' in the path (hardcoded hack test), 
but then the slide client lib converts it into '%252540'. Seems like 
it's encoding the '%' character.

Isn't there a way to control how the slide library encodes this?

I noticed a deprecated setEncodeURLs(boolean) method in WebdavResource, 
I tried it but it did nothing.

Summary:
My error is: Got status code 409, on propfind using 
"/users/john%2540myhost.com/images"
Needs to be: "/users/john%40myhost.com/images"
