similar to: Change I needed to make in to_absolute_uri for unescaped URL separator characters

I just started using Mechanize, and started using Ruby about thirty seconds before that, but one of the sites I''m scraping does a redirect on form submission to a badly-formed relative URL: index.cfm?action=bing&bang=boom=1|a=|b=|c= (etc.) Interestingly, Mechanize 0.6.2 handled this OK, but in 0.6.3 this causes a URI::InvalidURIError exception from URI.parse() in to_absolute_uri

hello. This code is abort with Mechanize 0.6.4 . ---------------------------- # sample.rb require "rubygems" require "mechanize" agent = WWW::Mechanize.new agent.user_agent_alias=''Windows Mozilla'' # top page of wikipedia for japanese agent.get("http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%A1%E3%82%A4%E3%83%B3%E3%83%9A%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B8")

hi guys, Calling request.url returns "http://gozila-underground.com/search? search%5Bby_keyword%5D=&commit=Search" which is an escaped version of "http://gozila-underground.com:3000/search? search[by_keyword]=&commit=Search". In ruby on rails, how to get the unescaped value of request.url (AS IS)? thank you -- You received this message because you are subscribed

Hi everyone, My quest with mechanize/Hpricot continues :) Something extremely strange happened today - some simple working code broke down, and i can''t figure out why. I am trying to access a piratebay.org search page, which does a redirect to a relative url like this: original link: http://thepiratebay.org/s/?page=0&orderby=3&q=football+manager+2008&searchTitle=on redirects

Dear R users, I am having a problem with odfWeave: when I run odfWeave('notes.odt', 'notes_out.odt') I get a bunch of errors that start with "Unescaped '<' not allowed in attributes values" in post-processing: <snip> ...

hey guys, i cant seem to mechanize.get('' http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P230234''), it errors out as: /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/mechanize-0.9.2/lib/www/mechanize/chain/response_header_handler.rb:32:in `handle'': invalid byte sequence in UTF-8 (ArgumentError) from

I''m helping with a gem that is going to published under the contentfree project on rubyforge (http://rubyforge.org/projects/contentfree/). The gem is called "blackbook" and basically it will go and fetch your contacts from the major webmail providers. So far Gmail, Yahoo!, and MSN have been completed. We are trying to finish up with fetching contacts from AOL Webmail. However

Page caching of urls with spaces in them using WEBrick and Mongrel is broken in Edge Rails (and Rails 1.1.6, where I started). This is due to the dispatch flow of control in both servers converting ''+'' in requested paths into '' '' chars, whereas the page caching system writes cache files for URLs with spaces in them out as encoded ''+''

Hi all, I''ve a problem when submitting a form : the URL seems to be invalid. I really don''t see the way I should try to solve that problem. I searched on the web, but didn''t found any kind of that problem. Here is the code : require ''mechanize'' agent = WWW::Mechanize.new page =

im using Mongrels to serve up /usr/portage/packages for other gentoo boxen. since i guess im the guinea pig with the DirHandler, ran into a couple issues: first, the client showed no files in the remote binhost, turns out the DirHandler was adding a trailing "/" to every filename, presumably making the client think they were directories, not files. attached is a patch which fixes this

Hi there, My routes.rb is something like map.connect '':controller/:action/:id'' However, when a url request likes http://xxx/user/category/a/b My intension is to call :controller => ''user'' :action => ''category'' :id => ''a/b'' However, :id has slash in it (a/b) will make rails fail to route.

Hello, I am assembling my first cool algorithms with mechanize and I came across this weird situation. I am trying to get this uri "http://www.relax.si/kratke po?itnice.aspx" like this (with url encoded uri): agent.get("http://relax.si/kratke%20po%u010Ditnice.aspx") and in return I get: WWW::Mechanize::ResponseCodeError: 400 => Net::HTTPBadRequest from

hi, a potential mechanize user here. i''ve looked at the API but it''s not clear what capacity there is to arbitrarily set the headers - does mechanize allow for this? mechanize is clearly great for web browsing, but i also need to construct get and post requests from scratch. i''ve looked at net:http, libcurl, openuri, but mechanize seems simpler and more functional than

Hi guys, it''s me again, I want to come up with the following url: www.mysite.com/webpage?myid=1 I keep coming up with the following url: www.mysite.com/webpage%3Fmyid%3D1 require ''uri'' $myurl = URI.escape("webpage?myid=") redirect_to(:action => $myurl + 1 ) what am I doing wrong? I also tried require ''cgi'' $myurl =

Been having a tough time finding any info on this subject (somewhat suprising actually). Looking thru the code, Rails automatically html_escape''s all option values and while this is generally good, I have some categories that have HTML embedded in them and therefore am looking for a way to turn this off. So far I have found none and am writing my own code to do this. If anyone knows

I've created a dict service that listens on a unix socket and answers queries for sieve scripts (among other things). As I understand it (from the source code at http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/file/tip/src/lib-dict/dict-client.c), the dict client will unescape \001n, \001t, and \0011 to line feeds, tabs, and the \001 character respectively. In my service I am escaping those three

I have a URL parameter that has special characters on it, so I do URL encoding as such: my_url(:email => CGI.escape("someemail+extension-O5WfVfzUwx8@public.gmane.org") Now, I would expect to call a CGI.unescape(params[:email]) on the action receiving this parameter, and this is true according to my functional tests. But when I tested this on the browser, it failed because,
