And the spaces won't confuse Firefox.
That does not work for me. I cannot say if it is Firefox or Apache that mess up. These two URLs are supposed to be interchangeable, but only the latter works for me when I paste it in the address field of Firefox:
Sorry for not reading what you wrote. You wrote "spaces" and I just assumed you meant the spaces converted to pluses. Spaces might work as they are, I haven't tested, but still url-encode encodes to these pluses so I have to convert them to %20 (or maybe just a space, I will test this).
