Author space in url

Hi,

For some reason, our Apache server can't recognize the "+" signs for
spaces in URL.

For example, /file+abc.html doesn't work.

We can only use %20 for spaces
/file%20abc.html

How can I get the + sign to work?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Lei

IIRC the + sign is only interpreted as a space only when following a ?

Like www.foobar.com/this.cgi?run+thisprog


run becomes ARGV[0] and thisprog becomes ARGV[1]
