Hi,

While I was trying to issue some regression tests over my URI path handling routine, I met with such a problem:

; Any character that's bigger than 255 reproduces the error.

Would somebody help me to fix the error please?

URLs should have only ASCII characters. For other characters (and for special ASCII characters), you must use %XX escapes.
