Description Ask Bjørn Hansen 2004-02-14 10:50:03 UTC
Description of problem:
Using Safari 1.2 (v125) on OS X.  If I enter a "ø" (ø htmlencoded) in the name field, 
it gets returned as the unicode character, but apparently not with the correct http headers.


How reproducible:
Always.

Comment 2 Bret McMillan 2007-02-12 22:00:57 UTC
Red Hat currently only views a subset of the ascii character set as valid for
usernames.  First & last names should be safe at this point.  Please re-open
this bug if you're continuing to have issues.
