Unicode URI considerations

URLs must be compatible with the DNS system.
Therefore they are restricted to ASCII set characters.

To make Chinese URLs, for example, a system of representing the thousands of available characters is to use ascii character to represent their character codes. Such encodings use the % sign within the context, but probably not at the end of content. This could of course be used to obfusticate all sorts of things. IE7 and Opera show Punicode chars - transport in ascii but client representation in local unicode equivalents. Therefore we can not build the data or edit with Firefox at all?

URL Rewriting

.htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule news_detail/(.*) news_detail.php?parameters=$1


in PHP
$params = array();
function router() {
  global $params;
  $exploded = explode("/", $_GET['"parameters"]);
  for ($i=0;$i < count($explode);$i++){
    $params[$explode[$i]]=$explode($i+1];
    $i++;
  }
}

}
