Summary 0000526: URIs with embedded auth details containing '@'
Revision 2013-12-18 17:31 by Vincent Sanders
Description NetSurf fails to interpret the following URI correctly:
http://guest@chrisy:guest1@webdav.mydrive.ch/public/test.txt

Instead of visiting webdav.mydrive.ch with a username of guest@chrisy, it tries to visit host chrisy.

URL-encoding the first @ makes NetSurf interpret the address as expected. ie. the following works where the above fails:
http://guest%40chrisy:guest1@webdav.mydrive.ch/public/test.txt
