Hi Mark,

Sometimes, people might have special characters in their names, such as Niña Mendoça. In such cases you'll have to deal with diacritics and then you might as well make sure to deal with spaces correctly. Otherwise, people will wonder why your system can't cope with perfectly normal non-English names.

Hi,

Should I use a space in directory names on the web? Or, is it better to
always do an underline?

I've got user, "Donald Duck." I've got a LC card called "Donald Duck" too.
There are files on the web called
/2013/Donald_Duck/attendance.txt

or, could it be
/2013/Donald Duck/attendance.txt


The space comes in as "%20" between first name and last name just fine so
far. But, will this break on any platform?

Could go either way.

Thanks.
