Jérémie, wikipedia uses urls as keys to its articles, whereas punBB uses numbers as keys to topics, that's why non-ascii chars can be stripped from our urls and it also makes urls more readable. (topic-1-jérémie is the same as topic-1-jeremie, but "jeremie" looks better in the adress bar of our navigator).

I don't like non-ascii chars in urls because when I copy-paste a link, my friends can't read %bla chars.

Thats right Rickard, we can't hope for more than this. In a few years we'll be able to include utf8 chars in urls but at the moment this is useless and makes urls unreadable for the user.

Actually a-z0-9 should be better, what do you think ? Uppercase letters in urls do not optimize referencing nor user experience, imho.

It actually does work but look at this fucked up url : "topic10-Rock-n%25A462-Fevrier-2006.html"
I think that sef_friendly() needs a little more work to be perfect (I mean, do we need °¤(){}[] etc... in our urls ?)

Topic: Url rewriting ° & ¤ issue (38 replies, posted in PunBB 1.3 troubleshooting)
Hi,
I wanted to notice you of a big bug i just discovered : you can't use the characters "°" and "¤" in a word of more than 3 letters in a topic title or you get a 403 error when trying to have a look at the topic itself.
I haven't tested a lot of chars but imho you should restrict your rewriting function to lowercase chars and numbers (for classy urls and better seo). This might be a problem for cyrillic and asian chars, though.

Wouldn't $prefix="prefix" be better, so it's possible to set a prefix (or none) instead of the default one? Just a thought.
This feature would be far harder to implement and that's the kind of thing you can do yourself very simply within your php code when building your query array.

Topic: $db->query_build with or without prefix (9 replies, posted in Feature requests)
Hi everyone,
First of all, thanks for the great work you are accomplishing with punbb 1.3. This is gonna be a real masterpiece.
I'm using punbb's database class in my website and I'd like to use the query_build function in it but there is a tiny bit of a problem with the fact that the tables prefix is automatically added within the query.
Could you implement a "$prefix = 1" at the end of the function parameters, and when set to "0", it wouldn't add tables prefix to the query ? (so I could build queries of my own, with other tables than punbb's)
Regards,
Kaelig
