Wow. Your right again.. that's why your the expert and I'm the annoying
novice..
BTW for any other poor Windows 2003 (W2K3) IIS ISAPI_Rewrite users,
I submitted my RewriteRule to the ISAPI_Rewrite support forum at
http://www.helicontech.com/forum/forum_topics-FID-2-PN-0.asp
They provided the two new Rewriterules that work flawlessly on my wiki so
far..
RewriteRule /wiki/([^?]+)(?:\?(.+))? /index.php\?title=$1?2&$2: [I,L]
RewriteRule /wiki/(?=Special)([\w:]+)/([\w:]+)
/index.php\?title=$1&target=$2 [I,L]
again, my physical location is
c:\wiki\MediaWiki\MediaWiki-1.6.3
LocalSettings.php statements:
- - - - - -
$wgScriptPath = "";
$wgScript = "$wgScriptPath/index.php";
$wgRedirectScript = "$wgScriptPath/redirect.php";
$wgArticlePath = "/wiki/$1";
- - - - - - - - -
Thanks Brion for your patience, availability and willingness to help,
Brian

So what would cause my instance of MW to generate
article links
differently
for some special characters? In my case, MW
crafts the link to an

containing a ( in the title with %28 to replace

replace "." with "%2E" or replace "/"s with
""%2F" when creating links.
Why would it? Those are not special characters, they are allowed in URLs.
Please see RFC 3986.
