Do I need to change something in the apache configuration, or mod_perl’s ?

 

/articles_read.pl?id=חוזרת

 

## get http parameters

$r = shift;

$apr = Apache2::Request->new($r);

print  $apr->param('id');

I'm not sure why you get nothing, but I can tell you strings read from Apache objects come through as octets and need to be decoded before use.  We're using UTF-8 chars in URLs but I've never used one in a GET request parameter.

hope that helps,

thanks in advance.
