query re IPv6 URL format

[hinden@Ipsilon.COM (Bob Hinden)]

Brian,

Let me see if I can continue to show how little I know about URL's.....

Would some sort of escape or quoting work?  Something like:

  http://[aaaa:bbbb:cccc::zzzz]/~bc
  http://[aaaa:bbbb:cccc::zzzz]:80/~bc
  http://[aaaabbbbccccddddeeeeffffgggghhhh]:80/~bc

 or

  http://"aaaa:bbbb:cccc::zzzz"/~bc
  http://"aaaa:bbbb:cccc::zzzz":80/~bc
  http://"aaaabbbbccccddddeeeeffffgggghhhh":80/~bc

 or (very ugly)

  http://aaaa&:bbbb&:cccc&:&:zzzz/~bc
  http://aaaa&:bbbb&:cccc&:&:zzzz:80/~bc

or (very ugly)

  http://&aaaabbbbccccddddeeeeffffgggghhhh:80/~bc

etc.

Bob
