The issue isn't really the filenames directly, but that URLs cannot
contain spaces. Depending on where the space occurs, it should be
encoded either as %20 (in the path portion) or as + (in the query-
string portion). In my experience, even using + rather than %20 in
path components (such as your filename) will work properly even though
it might not be strictly correct per some RFC.
