Hi all,

I've been using nginx for over a year to host my Drupal blog and several friends sites and love it.

I recently use wget to mirror a website I need to rebuild. This website has URLs in the form "script.ext?id=123"... wget has downloaded these as "script.ext?id=123.html". If I manually escape the ? as %3F, the nginx will serve the file, otherwise, it's trying to serve it as "script.ext" with the rest as $args...

I've tried using "rewrite" to escape it: eg,

rewrite ^/script.ext /script.ext%3F$args?

But I either get a 404 error or a 500 error (redirect loop)...

Does anyone have any suggestions?
