Rails - Jan 2006 - field sets and unicode

Hello gentlemen,

I''ve forced to such unicode problem:
I have: 
<%= text_field_tag ''search'', nil, :id =>
''search'', :size => 10 %>
<%= observe_field ''search'',
  :url => {:controller => ''article'', :action =>
''search''},
  :with => "''terms='' + escape(value)",
  :update => ''search_results'',
  :loading => "Element.show(''search_spinner'')",
  :loaded => "Element.hide(''search_spinner'')"
%>
in my article view, after sumbitting I get sequence like 
u0444u0438u043bu043eu0441u043eu0444u0438u044f in controller (params[:terms]).
How can I convert it into normal unicode? I am using UTF-8 as encoding.

Thanks,
Mikhail

instead of escape()
>   :with => "''terms='' + escape(value)",
use encodeURIComponent(), which should work fine with UTF8:

encodeURIComponent(''?????????'')  =>
%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%BE%D1%81%D0%BE%D1%84%D0%B8%D1%8F
