Webrat::Locators::LinkLocator fails on replace_nbsp due to invalid encoding

Reported by manveru | June 7th, 2009 @ 04:34 AM

On Ruby 1.9, encoding is major factor when dealing with strings, in this particular case, the input string is in US-ASCII encoding, while the regular expression tries to replace a multibyte character with a normal space.
I fixed the problem, this is the last of my patches that makes webrat run fully on Ruby 1.9 (as in, all specs pass).
The implementation is not optimal, it would be better to change the encoding further upstream, but I'm not sure where the original document string is coming from.
Patch is at: http://github.com/manveru/webrat/commit/8d2c027089f4d1ddc07a1e19d1c...

    Merged.

    We've now got all your 1.9 patches in and are green for all our suites on 1.9 as far as I can tell. Thanks for all your work on that effort!
