In trunk it does not replace spaces with %20.
This was reverted in r36934.

Opne ($Lazarus)/cl/include/sysenvapis_win.inc and simply remove the line

 if Pos(' ', AURL) > 0 then
        AURL := StringReplace(AURL, ' ', '%20', [rfReplaceAll, rfIgnoreCase]);

from OpenUrl() function and then rebuild your application (LCL should
be rebuilt automatically).

r36934. should probably be merged to fixes branch.


@Reinier: this part of the reverting has nothing to do with Win9x
compatibility, it would fail on Win7 as well.


The Win9x discussion was about quoting the file:// URI scheme.
But on Windows you should probably not use this, because Windows does
not have a default handler for file:// URI scheme and simply looks at
the extension.
