Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.3 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Rob Probin (robzed) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: urllib doesn't correct server returned urls

Initial Comment: On a URL request where the server returns a URL with spaces in, urllib doesn't correct it before requesting the new page.

I think this is technically a server error, however, it does work from web browsers (Mozilla, Safari) but not from Python urllib.

I would suggest that when urllib is following "moved temporarily" links (or similar) from a server it translates spaces to %20.

See example program file for more including detailed server/client transactions text.
