Initial Comment:
Hi,

We are running phpldapadmin 1.2.0.5 , debian lenny, php 5.2.6-1, apache 2.2.9-10, OpenLDAP 2.4.11-1.
I have a dn entry which begins with o=A + B,ou=organizations,..
When is use the tree ajax menu I can click on the entry and I get the data.
But when I use the seach function I can click on it but fetching the data gives an error: No such entry (o=A + B,ou=organizations,..

In the ldap logs:
First from the search:
slapd[21229]: conn=8 op=1 do_search: invalid dn (o=A + B,ou=organizations,ou=addressbook,dc=example,dc=tld)

Then from the tree:
slapd[21229]: conn=12 op=1 SRCH base="o=ABV \2B architecten,ou=organizations,ou=addressbook,dc=example,dc=tld" scope=0 deref=0 filter="(&(objectClass=*))"

The + sign is correctly converted to hexpair with the tree, but not from the search query results.

Another related (I think) problem is when you have a group of uniqueMembers which has a , sign in the dn.
I can get the data from the search query but when I try to add a uniqueMember I get an error in phpldapadmin:


Could not perform ldap_modify operation.
LDAP said:	Invalid DN syntax
Error number:	0x22 (LDAP_INVALID_DN_SYNTAX)
Description:	You used an invalid syntax in the specified DN.

But nothing in the ldap log.

Can you please have a look?

Best Regards,
Maarten

Message:
Don't mind the o=ABV \2B architecten in the 2nd log entry, it was before I
did the test with A + B 

It should be: A \2B B,ou=organizations,ou=addressbook,dc=example,dc=tld
