 In the Wikibrowse app I noticed that anything with a (, ), ', or other
 non-number/alphabet characters all break. For instance under Geography  ->
 Climate and the Weather -> Eye (Cyclone) will break. The page physically
 exists and when you look at the url it shows the ( and ) characters as %28
 and %29 respectively, where is should say %2528 and %2529. It appears to
 strip out the "25" from the special characters in the URL resulting in
 that data failing. The same thing happens through the Browse application.

 I'm running Joyride 1713 on a production series OLPC.

 I've tested this with loads of data and all the same. I tried to figure
 out a fix but couldn't, sorry! :)
