We have been running CMS 2002 for 8 months now and all of a sudden we
are receiving a naming error when adding a file to the resource
gallery.  It is all of a sudden not accepting file names with "&" in
them.  However, "&" has been accepted in the file name prior to
this(with CMS 2002).

Is there any known explanation for this?

Thank you in advance.

Here's the specific error:
Invalid name. The name is either empty or contains invalid characters.
A name must contain at least one valid character. Valid characters
include [a-zA-Z0-9 .-_()]. Additionally, a valid name may not end with
a period or contain two consecutive periods. Internal Details:

Hi MPoz,

& cannot be used in channel or posting names as these properties are used to
build up the URL.
And the URL must not contain this character except in the querstring to
concatenate different parameters.

I assume you added & to the displayname - here it is perfectly fine and
should also work now.

Cheers,
Stefan.
