    <p>I'm working with a Ruby on Rails application that makes a client side API call to a 3rd party service. It then takes strings from the 3rd party API and generates URIs with them.</p> <p>Unfortunately, Rails fails to parse some of the URIs due to encoding errors. I have tried running the strings through encodeURIComponent, but this does not resolve the issue.</p> <p>Here is the error I get:</p> <pre><code>Processing ApplicationController#index (for 67.101.113.66 at 2010-08-12 23:24:55) [GET] Parameters: {"name"=&gt;"Camilo Andr\xE9s \xD1ustes", "recipient_id"=&gt;"279"} ArgumentError (invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII): &lt;internal:prelude&gt;:8:in `synchronize' /home/heroku_rack/lib/static_assets.rb:9:in `call' /home/heroku_rack/lib/last_access.rb:25:in `call' /home/heroku_rack/lib/date_header.rb:14:in `call' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/connection.rb:76:in `block in pre_process' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/connection.rb:74:in `catch' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/connection.rb:74:in `pre_process' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/connection.rb:57:in `process' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/connection.rb:42:in `receive_data' eventmachine (0.12.10) lib/eventmachine.rb:256:in `run_machine' eventmachine (0.12.10) lib/eventmachine.rb:256:in `run' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/backends/base.rb:57:in `start' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/server.rb:156:in `start' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/controllers/controller.rb:80:in `start' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/runner.rb:177:in `run_command' thin (1.2.6) lib/thin/runner.rb:143:in `run!' thin (1.2.6) bin/thin:6:in `&lt;top (required)&gt;' /usr/ruby1.9.1/bin/thin:19:in `load' /usr/ruby1.9.1/bin/thin:19:in `&lt;main&gt;' </code></pre> <p>How do I properly handle these strings as input for my application?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
