On an iPad with Adobe Reader, when viewing slides which link to the replay CGI script, it seems that the escapes are doubly escaped, in other words a space character becomes %2520 because %25 is the percent character, and 20 is the hex code for space.

This is now fixed, but it is necessary to use the url: .../codeplay/query.cgi?replay%25=<COMMAND>

This allows codePlay to detect the escaping that is done in the URL.

The slides for the ift1015 course will thus have to be regenerated with the new syntax before students notice that it is now fixed.

It now works on iPad with adobe reader, but unfortunately, it does not work with Apple's PDF viewer. sigh...
