Hi Daniel and the list --

I'm afraid this is way beyond my expertise. I know only that "3A" is
the hex code for a colon, so at some point the colon that exists in
the url in the browser is translated into the hex code. I don't know
whether that translation happens in the javascript processing or what.
I'm using firefox/fedora, and things work well. (I'm not a programmer,
not even a hacker [in the good sense]. More of a tweaker.) So I'm afraid
I'm not any help here. 

More response to you and Carsten about documenting/publishing this
later (today, I hope).
