%2D in URL

My guess is that the %2D that shows up in the URL is an interpretation of -. What i don't understand is how come it shows up sometimes as - and others %2D? Any idea's?

Its showing up in stats with both pages getting hits and I'm thinking this is going to be a duplicate content issue if its not already.

I'd feel like saying... Doctype or Characterset

We use dashes in our URL's and it only happens to one part of the URL and it does not always happen. I wasnt very familiar with the doctype stuff so I will definitely explore that.

What I just don't understand is why it happens part of the time. If it was something with the code, wouldn't it happen all of the time? Now that it shows up as 2 different URLs in the statistics, I am somewhat concerned that link juice is leaking, dupe content, etc.

Is it coming up as %2D after using ModRewrite or are you using a urlencode function from within your code?

urlencode() will change all - to %2D, and related chars (non-alpha) to their ASCII codes
