When the mod-author has a # in his name the requested user doesn't exist.
Encoding doesn't work as well.

Possible solution could be, to put the attribute user_id into the <username> but not as required, so you don't have to change your manuals if everything works right now.

so example:

Code: Select all: <username user_id="277248">gn#36</username>

leeds to memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=277248
as

Code: Select all: <username>gn#36</username>

leeds to memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&un=gn#36 saying

The requested user does not exist.

This is a tricky one, i've tried a few things, and it'll probably need some kind of change to the XSL.

It's using the # part as an anchor for the page, it needs to be urlencoded correctly.

Correct. If I try to use the url encoded Version of # (%23 if I recall correctly) it will display %23 on the screen which does not really look nice.
