Description Joseph Reagle 2003-08-29 23:46:19 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.3)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:          Linux

This makes it impossible to properly reuse the URL.

Please give detailed reproduction steps when reporting bugs.
Comment 2 Joseph Reagle 2003-09-22 04:33:14 UTC 
Konq turns a perfectly valid URL: 
  "http://goatee.net/2003/test%20file.txt" 
into a invalid URL: 
  "http://goatee.net/2003/test file.txt" 
This is another request in my desire that that Konq keep URLs in the address 
bar valid -- because I past them into other contexts of course.

This bug report is a duplicate of the other one. 
 
Also note that having spaces in the URL doesn't make it invalid. It's just to make it more 
readable. Again, the URL is kept encoded internally. It's just the location bar that shows the 
"pretty" version for readability. 
 
Anyways, there's some broken code in there. According to the IRI drafts, the path 
components should be UTF-8 always, for instance.
