[REBOL] Re: URL handling

Try it this way...
>> url: join http:// {krak.dk/scripts/firmaresultat.asp?pub_id=KVWW&navn=&ve
j=&HUSNR=&POSTNR_FRA=&BY=&omraade=&tlf=&soegeord=&soeginfo=S%F8g}
== http://krak.dk/scripts/firmaresultat.asp?pub_id=KVWW&navn=&vej=&HUSNR=&PO
STNR_FRA=&BY=&omraade=&tlf=&soegeord=&soeginfo=S%F8g
>> read url
== {
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w
3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>ww...
>>
Im not sure what part is making it fail, but I suspect it happens during the
initial parsing, since quoting it works.
