Functions

skip_http_entity_data

Skips the data of the HTTP entity.

C:The HTTP connection. Is_orig:If true, the client data is skipped, and the server data otherwise.

See also: skip_smtp_data

unescape_URI

Type:function (URI: string) : string

Unescapes all characters in a URI (decode every %xx group).

URI:The URI to unescape. Returns:The unescaped URI with all %xx groups decoded.

Note

Unescaping reserved characters may cause loss of information. RFC 2396: A URI is always in an “escaped” form, since escaping or unescaping a completed URI might change its semantics. Normally, the only time escape encodings can safely be made is when the URI is being created from its component parts.
