From the mailing list:

It looks like GeoMoose is URL encoding already in the POST request and then geomoose.php is URL encoding the request again before sending it off.

Old versions of GeoMoose/JS apparently used GET instead of POST and did not automatically URL encode.

As this means the Service API changed somewhat unexpectedly, it would be good to know if the bug is that GeoMoose is URL encoding posts or if the bug is that geocode.php isn't URL-decoding posts.

IMHO, URL encoding POST but not GET seems odd as GET needs it or the URL is invalid, while POST wouldn't necessarily need it.
