How to pass special characters to plugins

Hello,

I have noticed that when I search (using a self-created plugin for a web page) for a word which includes a letter that is not included in the English language, this is sent to the plugin in encoded form.

Using DA, the search string looks like this:
lauritz.com/da/auktioner/?STA=3&FText=%F8

Yet, when I search the page without use DA, the letter ø is included in the search string itself:
lauritz.com/da/auktioner/?FLId=1&FText=ø

How do I pass such special characters to the plugin in a way so they are not encoded?

Thank you,
Bruger

The plugin seems to use the wrong encoding, just add this to its code:


	<key>EncodingUrl</key>
	<string>UTF-8</string>

Yes, that solved this issue, thank you!
