A . (dot) in url

[eluser]bibstha[/eluser]
Hi,

I just found out that an arguement with . is being replaced by an underscore (_).

Code:

class Test extends Controller {
  function test_method($arg) {
    print $arg;
  }
}

Now the url Test/test_method/foo.bar

results in foo_bar being printed.

Is it a standard behavior? or is it part of some config?
If it is a standard behavior, is there anyway i could change it?

http://calendar.test/calendar/te.st/month/2009/05 on my local server.

This is a sample uri, I have and echoing uri->segment(2) echoed 'te.st'.

It wasn't modified in some sort of way.

This could probably help you out.

And another thread that just solved the same problem here

What is it with everyone having the same problem all of a sudden?

I'm guessing it's because of that swine flu virus... *nasty*
