Hmm, the unicode is definitely getting mixed up somehow. If I enter in the command:
/browser
http://eq2.playhard.ru/item.php?name=П
(just one Cyrillic character, Unicode 041F)
The browser gives me:
http://eq2.playhard.ru/item.php?name=%EF%BF%90%EF%BE%9F
Does anyone recognize that type of encoding? %EF looks like the start of a UTF-8 character so I'm guessing that's two 3 byte characters.
If I go to the web site first and paste the character "П" into the search field, the encoding it shows is:
http://eq2.playhard.ru/item.php?name=%CF
Hmm, after some
Cyrillic research on Wikipedia it looks like the site uses
Windows-1251 encoding.
But that's probably as far as I'm going to get for now.
