 ---> Using WP v2.2.1  the newest build as of 7/20/2007

 Some plugins use wp-admin/options.php to update their parameter settings.

 Paths to the plugin folder get changed via a urlencode function in this
 file.   So a plugin options file located at...

    wp-content/pluginName/plugin-options.php

 gets changed to...

    wp-content/pluginName2Fplugin-options.php

 and the admin.php file errors this out with a message...

 CANNOT LOAD  pluginName2Fplugin-options.php

 The problem is in the wp-admin/options.php file around about line 112.

      $goback = preg_replace('|[^a-z0-9-~+_.?#=&;,/:]|i', '', $goback);

 needs to be changed to...

      $goback = preg_replace('|[^a-z0-9-~+_.?#=&;,/:%]|i', '', $goback);
 (note the addition of the % symbol)

 This change keeps the %2F in the path instead of just 2F.

 Perhaps there's another way.... but this worked for me.  If you guys know
 a better way, please let me know.

 Tim
