Subject: [ruby-core:33760] [Ruby 1.9-Bug#4167][Open] URI.encode encodes reserved character of #

Bug #4167: URI.encode encodes reserved character of #
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/4167

Author: George M. Harkin
Status: Open, Priority: Normal
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-linux]

URI.encode's default behavior is to follow RFC 2732 [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2732] which includes # in the list of characters to URI encode.

The updated RFC 3896 [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-2.2] includes # in the list of reserved characters.

This bug is present in Ruby 1.8 too.

Observed behavior:

  require 'uri'
  enc = URI.encode("http://google.com/moo?testo=true#anchor21")
  => "http://google.com/moo?testo=true%23anchor21"

Expected behavior:

  require 'uri'
  enc = URI.encode("http://google.com/moo?testo=true#anchor21")
  => "http://google.com/moo?testo=true#anchor21"
