http request values converted wrong in special case
Reported by Joern Akkermann | April 22nd, 2010 @ 08:35 AM
Hi,
I'm using Rails 2.3.4.
Following situation:
You have a call like "/books/show?name=the+name"
as you can see the space between "the" and "name" is correctly
replaced by a "+"
now you change the route to "/:name" and create a link_to
"example", :controller => :books, :action => :show, :name
=> "the name"
and you get "/the name" without the space replaced.
That's wrong I think!? It should also be replaced by a "+".
If it is not clear: it is only the case if you rename a route like I did above.
Edit: The Problem is: Rails should generate a valid and working url, an url like "/the name" is equivalent to "/the", that's no good deal. Rails should convert all chars of the passed vars the way like chars are always converted for urls. If a space becomes a "%20" or "+" doesn't matter but there are often many chars that need to be converted. At least we need something like h() for urls.
Yours Joern.

If you do this;
link_to "example", :controller => :books, :action => :show, :name => "the name"You're specifically passing the string "the name". I don't think rails should replace that space with a '+', since you specified you wanted a space there.
And, what do you mean by "You have a call like "/books/show?name=the+name""? I don't really understand what you're talking about.
I think this one is invalid, but we probably need more info...

What bug is this causing? If it's just "the URL doesn't look pretty" then that's not a Rails issue.
