just need "#" can work in my url request

[chagel]

why does "%23"(means "#") in request URL can't be resolved correctly on bluehost??

I have a Django project running under fastcgi on Bluehost. Pages like "http://domain.com/tags/c%23/" just doesn't work. It redirects to a new url like as "http://domain.com/t/tags/c/"??

How can I get it right?!!

If it's redirecting you, it's not because of the server. Something in your script or setup is causing it.

Thanks for your reply.

Actually no, same code can work on different working environment here, but without luck on BH. I'm quite sure it's not a coding issue.

Here is the .htaccess file and it doesn't seem to have problems:

AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi 
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteBase / 
#static file setting 
RewriteRule ^(media/.*)$ - [L] 
RewriteRule ^(static/.*)$ - [L] 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(dispatch.fcgi) 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi/$1 [L]

Nothing in your htaccess file should be causing the behavior you're seeing.

However, the URL can't just change from "/tags/c%23/" to "/t/tags/c/" without some redirect action going on (I could see it possibly dropping everything after the "c" as a url fragment). My server resolves /xx%23xx/ as /xx#xx/ without any problems, which means something in django is likely causing this.

If it isn't doing it on other servers, what's different?

Same code works fine on our development environment.
The difference is we directly use Django internal web server on our computer, and server is using apache and fastcgi.

If it's a programming issue, we should see the same result locally. I guess it may be apache or fastcgi configuration problem, but I am not sure if I can overwrite settings in .htaccess or through other ways.
