IE6 converting URL encoded characters. Messing up links.

[Smapty]

Hello,

This problem only seems to be with IE6. We have a javasctipt function that linked divs around imagemaps links. The problem we are seeing is with one client who is using SES urls and product identifiers that have commas and slashes in them. The links in the image maps work because they are url encoded, but for some reason IE6 keeps wanting to convert them. The urlencode for forward slash, %2F, is obviously the biggest problem. Also, it leaves spaces %20 alone.

Anyone else run into this problem?

Any ideas? :\

Try running the links through "unescape" for IE only before using them?

Hope this helps,
Dan
