Swedish characters in a irule

The client should URL encode non-ascii characters. Can you try logging the [HTTP::uri] value to confirm this?

 

Also, the [HTTP::uri] value will not typically include the host name.

 

https://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/iRules.http__uri.ashx For the following URL:

 

http://www.example.com:8080/main/index.jsp?user=test&login=check

 

The URI is:

 

/main/index.jsp?user=test&login=check

Hi i used the following in the end but it seems to be different depending on what browser you use, IE and firefox work but chrome does not.

 

when HTTP_REQUEST { log local0. "Path = [HTTP::path]" if { [string compare "ber%C3%A4tta" [HTTP::path]] } { log local0. "Redirect to Satchi site" }

 

HTTP::respond 301 Location "http://91.196.242.118" }

Any time I have to do anything with non-ASCII characters, I will also create a variable that’s a b64decode of a base64-encoded string and perform comparisons against that. Given the prevalence of UTF-8–capable browsers, it’s not unreasonable to expect them to send words in other languages’ character sets anymore.

 

For example, set test_uri_1 [b64decode "YmVyw6R0dGE="]

 

There’s a little front-end work done here, but I’ve had this work regularly.
