• RFC3986 (specifically section 2.3) states that you can't have accented characters in a valid url.

  Alexandre H. Tremblay : Well you don't use special chars, you use %C3%A9 which are all valid and things like that to get around it. There are thousands of site doing it and google indexes the url properly.

• It is being done by the browser, not by the website.

  In firefox you can turn it off, read more about this at the network.standard-url.encode-utf8 documentation. It also has a reference to RFC3987 which requires browsers to do this properly. Apparently IE and Opera and not doing it properly, unless they have been fixed since the Mozillazine article was written.

  So the bottom line is: when you write %C3%A9 in your browser address bar, the browser will turn it into utf-8 characters.
