In terms of routing urls for the web, it's standard practice to use the character / to separate routing urls.
Ex:
www.example.com/i/like/programming
Is there a specific reason, such as search engine optimization, that this is the standard way to generate urls?
However, it's also easily possible, especially with frameworks such as Symfony2 or Zend, to make routing patterns like so:
www.example.com/i<>like<>programming
I want to know specific reasons why special characters are not (or shouldn't be) used in place of the character /
The convention is named Uniform resource locator. Wikipedia has a great article here

It'd be nice to know before I change my heuristic model to a test model, in the interests of readability.
This page suggests it's a reserved word, but the language there is ambigous.
I created a Rails 3 demo app with scaffolding based on a Test model and all seemed to be working just fine, but as soon as I tried to run an Rspec test, it all fell apart, so the answer is yes, it's a reserved word.

Why to restrict allowed usernames by different rules? For example why can't user have "#123 qw" username? Is there any techical difficulties or it's just about community rules?
Also is it ok to have national characters in the username? If I use "UTF-8" encoding for my website it should work just well in all browsers.
Username within a system is most of the time for the consumption of HUMANS therefore, from usability point of view it should be READABLE
And yes you can use your national characters in username and make sure you understand character encoding , storage and retrieval. You system/application should be ready to consume the selected encoding at every level e.g client-side, server-side and at database end and tools you use to manipulate with each tier e.g IDEs etc ..
So from my point of view you need some extra knowledge and efforts to handle such a system without killing Usability
I believe I can give you more than one reason but the first that comes off my head is this one.

I am using an extension that depends on the page. I would like to use the extension for each board which means I need a board unique url. It currently looks like this
http://phpbb-site.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=BOARDNUMBER
I'd like to trick Firefox into having BOARDNUMBER in the location part of the url.
Then the extension will work and I won't have to tweak it. The problem is that I can't think of any way I can have Firefox use nice urls. I only need it to work on my computer. I don't own the site. What can I do? Can I use a proxy program? I was thinking maybe I could write a quick asp.net program which essentially does a GET request on the site and replaces all links to include the boardnumber and ignores that part of the url when making the request. It's probably a bad idea because I am sure lots can go wrong
Any ideas?
You should be able to do this using a simple script in Fiddler.

Ok, quick points for someone who is better at searching than I am...
I know I have seen before a list of translations of common application strings like "File," "Open," "Save," "Close," and "OK," into other languages. This was not just a scrape of Google translator, but an actual "official" list based on the localized OS. It seems to me that it was on Microsoft's site, but I'm not 100% sure.
I need to translate my application into Indonesian and wanted to give our translators a head start by filling in those common terms with the standard values, but now I cannot find the web page(s)! I've spent about 15 minutes and will continue to search (and will post the answer if I find it), but if someone else knows where that is (or finds it first!), please answer.

I'm getting invalid URI issues, so what exactly makes a valid URI?
At the highest level a URI reference (hereinafter simply "URI") in string form has the syntax
[scheme:]scheme-specific-part[#fragment]
If you are interested to know the complete set of rules, read RFC-2396
I doubt whether you need to know all the syntaxes. I have never read the entire RFC and still I am using URI in development and day to day use. So, you better post the URI you are having problem with. Then, people here can point out the specific problem.
