Spaces, and a whole bunch of other reserved characters are not permitted - it 
violates the RFC (spaces are used to delimit things in HTML)

You need to URLEncode reserved values (spaces are replaced by %20). Some 
browsers do this automagically for you (e.g. IE) when you put in a URL that 
contains a reserved character.

Wikipedia has a table of reserved characters:

Spaces are not allowed in website URL’s and will blow up often.  Correct?
