Proper decode of cookie values

[boof]

Ok, I'm new to the adva CMS so it took me some time to figure this out. But since my last name is Aßmann it really bothered me. :)

in adva_cms/engines/adva_cms/public/javascripts/adva_cms/application.js at line 4 you try to unescape the values from a cookie. It seems Rails uses URI encode for values stored in cookies so you need to call decodeURIComponent instead of unescape.

Hi Florian,

thanks for pointing this out. The proposed fix doesn't seem to work for me though:

Any further ideas?

Ah, my fail. Forgot that I changed authentication_user.rb, too. I've wrapped user.name in a CGI.escape before assignment to cookies[:uname]. This works for me in FF 3.5.5 and Safari 4.0.3.

Ah, alright, pushed: http://github.com/svenfuchs/adva_cms/commit/c139e0ef0bfa380061ad2c045798df4d5658da91

Does that work for you?
