Hi Morgen,

Rather than a dialog and error, shouldn't we rather use the ISO- Latin encoding (used for URLs) and convert those characters? For space, this is 32 decimal or 20 in Hex so it becomes '%20' in a URL.

e.g.: http://www.osaf.foo bar.htm -> http://www.osaf.foo%20bar.htm

I'd prefer that to a dialog to be honest. It'll catch some simple encoding/decoding cases though, indeed, it might be that the URL is wrong anyway...

Cheers,

In this case I'm not adding a dialog -- the user is already in the Subscribe dialog, and the warning about embedded spaces is actually displayed at the bottom of that dialog. Also, I think most of the time these embedded spaces are truly copy/paste errors caused by wrapped lines, and so converting them to %20 isn't going to be the right fix.
