I tried putting a '+', '%20' and a '&' (tried in IE and did not work) but none of these worked. Jetspeed errored out for the '+' and '%20'. Yes I believe putting 'spaces' in url is a not a good idea but moreover did them not me. When you say rewrite with underscores, I assume you mean if I had control with the name put in underscores. Right?
Any ideas? Here is one of my entries in the .xreg file. <portlet-entry name="Moreover_Top20Stories" hidden="false" type="ref" parent="RSS" application="false"> <meta-info> <title>Moreover Top 20 Stories</title> <description>Moreover Top 20 Stories</description> </meta-info> <classname>org.apache.jetspeed.portal.portlets.FileServerPortlet</classname> <url cachedOnURL="true">http://p.moreover.com/cgi-local/page?c=Top+stories&o=rss</url> </portlet-entry> ----Original Message Follows---- From: Glen Carl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "Jetspeed Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Jetspeed Users List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: Spaces in URL's for Portlets cause Jetspeed not to import .xreg file Date: Fri, 11 Oct 2002 09:05:21 -0700 Are you URL encoding the spaces with +'s ? Personally, I think URLs with spaces is bad practice, and if you can rewrite the spaces with underscores you will have better days.
