    <p>depends on the target users... for example Nürnberg.de also looks at <a href="http://nuernberg.de" rel="nofollow">nuernberg.de</a> for sake to make it easily accessible for native German user(as German keyboard is default and has all 4 extra key-symbols (öäüß) avaible to all German speakers), and do not forget that one of the goal I18N is to provide native language feel to the end user. Mac and Linux user have even more initiative way, like by clicking Alt+u on Mac will induce umlaut in characters to deal with I18N inputing.</p> <blockquote> <p>I was just wondering what are the complications of having the non-ascii characters in the URL.</p> </blockquote> <p>but the way you laid your question, it seems that your question is more around <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Locator" rel="nofollow">URI, rather then URL</a>... and you are trying to fuse URN with non-ascii characters inside URI. there are no complications in it, if you know where and how to parse the your URN at server ( <a href="http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/urls/" rel="nofollow">for example: in case of Django based server, the URN can be parsed and handled using regex inside url.py</a> ).. all you need to keep in mind is that with web2.0( Ajax javascript based) evolution, everything mainly runs in utf-8, as Javascript specification demands utf-8 encoding. And thus utf-8 has evolving into a sort of standard. stick with utf-8 encoding specs, and you will hardly be facing any complications in URI parsing and working around it.</p> <p>for example. check the URI <a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki" rel="nofollow">http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki</a>/Fürth or <a href="http://hi.wikipedia.org/wiki" rel="nofollow">http://hi.wikipedia.org/wiki</a>/जर्मनी .. irrespective of the encoding you write it in addressbar, browser will translate it to UTF-8, and send it to server.</p> <p>NOTE : beside UTF-8, there are some symbols that are encoded using percentage encoding.. more about it can be located here...</p> <p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding</a></p>
