Haven't read the RFC, but cgi.rb (CGI library of Ruby) decodes names and values.

  key, value = pairs.split('=',2).collect{|v| CGI::unescape(v) }

CGI.pm (CGI library of Perl), too.

    $param = unescape($param);
    $value = unescape($value);

OK, thanks for the info.

So I think we should follow their lead. I've released a new version:

Version 0.2.11 2004-09-02 FORM-URL-ENCODED-LIST-TO-ALIST now decodes names and values

Note that this change affects the names of GET and POST parameters as well as the names of cookies.

Cheers, Edi.
