Le dernier numéro du magazine du département fait la pub d’un commerce en donnant l’URL de son site internet, avec un caractère accentué dans le nom de domaine en .fr… sauf que le domaine ne marche pas. Il faut supprimer l’accent pour que ça fonctionne.
J’ai écrit à la rédactrice en chef pour signaler la coquille et expliquer que accent ou pas d’accent, ça fait deux noms de domaines
différents.
