| I've found that most AJAX requests in UCW Examples do not work with IE,                                        
| but work good in Firefox. For example when I started tab pane example the                                      
| first request was doing properly                                                                               
[...]                                                                                                            
| When AJAX requests failed in IE, 'url' always contained encoded '/'                                            
| character (%2F), when request were successful, 'url' contained normal '/'                                      
| character.                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                 
Hi.                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                 
I had the same problem using the ajax branch with browser javascript                                             
disabled.  I think UCW needs to be more careful when url-encoding the entire                                     
uri path for actions.  It seems that was added to support unicode characters                                     
in path names.  Since I'm not using any fancy characters, I took the hacky                                       
approach and disabled the encoding entirely.  I also disabled it when                                            
setting the cookie path, since that was keeping sessions from working                                            
correctly for me.                                                                                                
                                                                                                                 
Attached is a patch.  I don't consider it suitable for inclusion into UCW,                                       
but it might be useful to someone or encourage a real fix.
