Table of Contents' links broken if Headers/Anchors contain special unicode characters

    • Icon: Bug Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Icon: Low Low
    • 5.2.5
    • 5.1.4, 5.2.3
    • None

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Create a page in Confluence 5.1.4
      2. Add the following headers to the page:
        • исия
        • sdこんにちは
        • assadsadas
      3. Add the TOC macro into the page

      Notice that the link in the TOC macro is encoded, like this (for headers with special unicode characters only):

      <a href="#sdfsdf-%D0%B8%D1%81%D0%B8%D1%8F">
      исия
    </a>

      Note

      This seems to occur only in Confluence 5.1.4 (5.1.2 does not exhibit the same behavior).

      Problem seems to be caused by this in AbstractPageLink.generateAnchorForURL():

      return GeneralUtil.urlEncode(HtmlElementIdCreator.convertToIdHtml5(prefix + anchor));

      Manually updating it to this fixes the issue:

       return HtmlElementIdCreator.convertToIdHtml5(prefix + anchor);

      Chrome works fine despite the encoded URL link.
