URI/IRI Example

URIs define escaping for octets, not for characters

http://www.example.com/turnover/2001/March (March alone can be a relative URI)

	encoding (server side/ undefined)		us-ascii or %HH	utf-8 or %HH
original characters	<====>	bytes	URI	IRI
March	us-ascii/utf-8	4D 61 72 63 68	March	March
März	iso-8859-1	4D E4 72 7A	M%E4rz	M%E4rz
März	macintosh	4D 8A 72 7A	M%8Arz	M%8Arz
März	utf-8	4D C3 A4 72 7A	M%C3%A4rz	März

IRI functionality can only be used when URI octet encoding is UTF-8.
