Subject: Re: [users@httpd] encodings getting decoded...

I'm using the latest FireFox on Linux.  I am building a web application
where these URL's are created dynamically based on a users input in a
"title" field.  I am filtering their input and encoding it, I guess it
would be best to just delete them with the filter.  Is there a list of
all these characters somewhere that I can look at do build my filter?

Thanks!
Rick
