Hi,
I have and URL on my site that looks like http://domain.com/page/itunes-10.1.2
So the 2nd segment of URL is itunes-10.1.2. However when I try to use {segment_3} variable - it replaces dots with underscores, so I get itunes-10_1_2
Because of this the appropriate channel entry does not show.
I’m using EE 2.1.3, build 20101220

Yuriy,
Note that a typical EE URL for a single paged entry looks like this
http://www.mydomain.com/index.php/template_group/template/url_title
In your URL can you identify what each segment is please?
Are you using any third-party add-ons?
If itunes-10.1.2 is an actual entry title open up the entry and let us know what the URL title is

In my url ‘page’ is template name (in default template group)
‘itunes-10.1.2’ is entry URL title.
The only extensions I use are NSM better meta and Solspace Tag

So how are you using {segment_3}, where? Can you show us a little more of your code?

I mean {segment_2}, sorry for the confusion.
If I call {exp:channel:entries} on this page without specifying url_title parameter (but specifying channel), it returns no results

Can you try to a typical EE URL as mentioned by John Henry, i.e. including a template group? What happens when you try {segment_2} and {segment_3} in your template, do they show the expected results?

It appeared that the problem was because of URL rewriting in my .htaccess. Sorry for the confusion.
Thank you for your assist!
