In URL, German Umlaute "ä, ö, ü" do work fine; but "ß" ("sharp-s") is not transformed to IDN-form, but is transformed to "ss" -- which will lead to some other web site. What can be done? I use FFox 3.6.13 on MacOSX 10.6.3.

There was a discussion a while back on the German forum about this issue:

As you can see via web-sniffer.net, in this case the server redirects to http://woerdpress.de
