I dunno about new, but according to RFC 3986 (Appendix C) it's what should happen, i.e., unencoded whitespace should be ignored when parsing URLs. Whitespace (including line breaks) breaks up URLs, so removing it is the way to put them back together again. > Able to be defeated? I expect it's deep in the heart of Gecko and can't be overridden. IME the quickest way to get the whitespaces encoded is what Ray suggested, entering the URL in the address bar, then copying it from the address bar. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
