[Gllug] Apache2 mod_rewrite not passing all characters

Hi All,

We are seeing some strange behavior with mod_rewrite not passing the 
whole of the captured string.

The URL

domain.com/Es-spain/A+Coru%D1a/

which we capture with

([^/]*)/([^/]*) handler.php?area=$1&resort=$2

However when we dump the GET arguments from handler.php the second 
argument is passed as "A Corua" not A CoruÑa (Capital N with a tilde 
above is missing).

To make things stranger special characters whose code starts with a 
number not a letter are passed correctly.

Suggestions anyone?

Simon
