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.

I've tested a change to "redirect_internal(self, url, fp, errcode, errmsg,
headers, data)" in "urllib.py" that adds a single line newurl =
newurl.replace(" ","%20") after the basejoin() function call that appears
to fix the problem.
This information is placed in the public domain.
