How can I send http-request (GET) in UTF-8, using TIdHTTP?
for example: http://AppServer/webapp?param1=value1
server supposes that string value1 is in UTF-8.
I've written such code:

AnsiString HttpReq = "http://AppServer/webapp?param1=<some
text>"
AnsiString Utf8HttpReq = AnsiToUtf8(HttpReq)
idhttp->Get(Utf8HttpReq,ResponseStream);

But there is something wrong - server recieves strange characters...
