[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-4858) Format 'application/openlayers' fails if layer name has special characters (e.g., 'á', 'ã')

Format 'application/openlayers' fails if layer name has special characters (e.g., 'á', 'ã')
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-4858
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4858
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.1.2
            Reporter: Milton Jonathan
            Assignee: Andrea Aime

It seems that the generated html/js code itself is OK, but there is some king of encoding problem that ends up garbling names in the subsequent WMS requests, ending up in error ("LayerNotDefined"). Regular formats (e.g., 'image/png') work alright.

The problem is easy to reproduce: from a standard GeoServer installation, edit the 'states' Layer and rename it to 'statesá'. Then try to open the OpenLayers preview for that layer.
