Whenever I use swedish chars Å (a with circle above) Ä(a with 2 dots above) and Ö(o with 2 dots above) in url (

http://www.homepage.com?a=äta)

it results in an "500 Internal Server Error"

and I can read this error message in apache errorlog file:

[Tue Nov 11 14:44:25 2003] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (22)Invalid argument: couldn't create child process: 22: php.exe
[Tue Nov 11 14:44:25 2003] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (22)Invalid argument: couldn't spawn child process: <root>/php/php.exe

it's almost as if php is unable to read those chars, how can I make it work?

Somehow I still manage to make it work

I recommend that you URL encode the characters in question.

For example, instead of:

[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.homepage.com?a=äta[/URL]

try

[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.homepage.com?a=%e4ta[/URL]
