nginx adding UTF-8 characters for some reason
January 28, 2013 09:15AM
Hi All

I have a very strange problem, the following page (amongst others) links to our site (broadband.co.uk):

http://www.computerweekly.com/news/1280091729/UK-broadband-gains-speed

which look fine when you view the source for the link are causing some strange behaviour when clicked.. try it.

Nginx receives the request and translates it to http://www.broadband.co.uk/%E2%80%A9

which is the values encoded are a small letter a with a circumflex, an invalid/undefined character and the copyright symbol: 
 apparently those codes together is the UTF-8 paragraph separator

I have no idea why nginx is doing this, and more importantly I have no idea how to catch it and deal with it in nginx config.

Can anyone give me any pointers?

thanks
