Thx Kovid. Unfortunately the problem with doing that is it "undoes" the other stuff that the quoting is trying to achieve. Take for example this book author/title:
E. M. Cioran De l'inconvénient d'être né
To search Amazon.com.fr for that book, what I need supplied is for the URL to be in this format:
Code:
http://www.amazon.fr/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=E.%20M.%20Cioran+De%20l%27inconv%E9nient%20d%27%EAtre%20n%E9
My code I listed above using open_url(QUrl.fromEncoded(url)) does exactly that.
However if instead I use open_url(QUrl(unquote(url))) then what gets generated is this:
Code:
http://www.amazon.fr/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias=stripbooks&field-keywords=E.%20M.%20Cioran+De%20l%27inconv%C3%A9nient%20d%27%C3%AAtre%20n%C3%A9
which corresponds to something like:
"E. M. Cioran De l'inconvénient d'être né"
My head hurts
