Uh? EncodeRedirectURL is a function or a method, at least that's what I 
thought.
I write these starting with a verb and an initial capital, a quite 
common convention, except in the Java world (but at my work, they kept 
this convention, coming from C++ (or is it just MFC? :-) ) for our large 
Java application).

Indeed, all my variable names start with an initial lowercase: encoded, 
encodedURL.
Now, in Lua, the distinction is fuzzy, of course...
