I was pulling my hair out trying to figure this one out myself for a while. I finally noticed that my users were submitting a space character on a form, that sent its value to a php script that used that value in a file() call. It made my url end up looking like this: http://www.mysite.com?i=1&t=2&x= 5&m=4 I know this is lazy coding on my part that caused this, but I have now fixed it. Just a heads up to double check your data that gets sent into the function for silly little stuff like this.
