[squid-users] Squid 3.2.0.18 vs 2.7 - apostrophe in access.log - who must escape the client or Squid ?

Dear squid users.

When using a client like FF/IE against Squid v3.2 and v2.7 with default logformat Squid always escape the apostrophes in the URL with %27 in the access.log

When using a client like LINKS against Squid v3.2 and v2.7 with default logformat Squid only escape the apostrophes in the URL with %27 in the access.log with v2.7 and not with v3.2

I assume clients like FF/IE escape the URL before passing it to Squid ?

Is this a possible bug in Squid v3.2 since Squid 2.7 does the proper escaping before logging it to access.log.

The reason I'm asking is, I have a daemon as logger and now need to escape the URL value in the daemon since Squid v3.2.

Who must escape the URL the client or Squid ?
