[htdig-dev] Encoding URL in HtHTTP class

[Gabriele B. <g.b...@co...>]

Ciao guys,

    I came up with a doubt (I don't know but I never paid attention to this 
before). If I am not *wrong*, when requesting a URL through HTTP, we should 
encode the string (URL encoding), by using the encodeURL functions of the 
URL class (URLTrans.cc file).

    Essentially, two fields of the HTTP request IMHO need to be encoded 
prior requesting the resource.

    First case in the request line, for instance GET encoded_URL HTTP/1.0.

    The second one, when given, the referer.

Any suggestion? Do you think we can just ignore this and keep on sending 
the plain URL?

Ciao
-Gabriele

  it displays a dialog box and lets you press 'OK' first.
