if the filenames have spaces in them, that's not valid URL syntax.
Netscape 4.7 and possibly other versions won't display them, unless the
names are URL-escaped. i.e. "dirty%20pics.jpg" instead of "dirty pics.jpg"
could it be firewalls doing the blocking, which the end-users might be
unaware of?

Subject: [ cf-dev ] OT: missing
images (ADULT)
24/05/2004 10:35
Please respond to dev
Apologies for the OT. A long time ago, in a job far, far away, I built a
classified-adverts type site for a client. He gets reports every now and
again from people saying that they can't see the thumbnail images in any
of the adverts. Thing is, I can see them fine and so can he.
Asking visitors for ISP, browser, version, etc has yielded nothing
common. Also (see the caveat below), they don't all appear to be stopped
by software that blocks adult content. I did wonder if it was the fact
that the image upload code permitted spaces in the image file names, but
that's probably a long shot.
Any ideas?
CAVEAT: this is a site with ADULT CONTENT, so if you are afraid of
seeing small pics of middle-aged men in wigs and skirts or restraining
devices, DON'T FOLLOW THE LINK BELOW (watch the site-traffic sky rocket
now ;-)
