[PHP-DEV] Strange auth bug From: Rasmus Lerdorf (rasmus <email protected>)
Date: 11/10/98

I am trying to track down a weird bug here. Just wondering if anybody has
run across something similar.

When I authenticate on a page using a user id of: tätär
and a password of: blah

IE sends an Authorization header which looks like this:

  Basic dOR05HI6YmxhaA==

while Netscape sends:

  Basic dOR0

What gives? Unless I missed something, this looks like a pretty basic
browser bug.

I am testing with Navigator 4.5 on Win98 and IE5.
