Hi,
How do I convert characters of URL?
I want absolute URL. I don't want percent-encoding characters of URL. Here is an example:
How come Wikipedia could do this absolute URL: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutley_(NJ)
Why cannot I get absolute URL after created: example.com/Nutley_%28NJ%29
What is the solution?
Thanks, Mikey3D

Which produce <p><a href="/wiki/Nutley_%28NJ%29" title="Nutley (NJ)" class="mw-redirect">Nutley (NJ)</a></p>
Why cannot I get absolute URL after created: example.com/Nutley_%28NJ%29
Browser difference?
What is the solution?

Can be done, you may screw visitors with some user-agents by doing so.

I think Firefox 3 displays the URL in the address bar without percent-encoding characters. Is this right? Maybe this is the "problem".
