MOD_REWRITE - Latin2 characters - 404 ERROR!

[janecki]

I have a problem with Latin2 characters (for example: ó - %F3 )

My Example Rule:

RewriteRule ^page,(.*)\.html$ page.php?name=$1 [L]

When I'm requesting:
page,lobóz.html

(witch contains latin2 character ó (%F3) i have 404 page error.

I know that I shoud avoid special characters but i really need them.

Thanks for solution of my problem.

(1) Your group is <news:comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix>

(2) Do not (never!) use special characters in file names.

Somewhat inappropriate, given the subject.

That might have been more intelligible had ou sent them as Latin2.

That's all very well when you control both the client and the server,
but what happens when there is a client outside of your network?

>I know that I shoud avoid special characters

No, you should avoid those special characters not allowed in domain
names. You are allowed to use hyphens.

>but i really need them.

This won't help in the short term, but I suggest that you get involved
in the ongoing discussions of internationalization.

_You_ might have checked first that "small o with acute" (ó) has
the same code position xF3 in both ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-2.
