[mapserver-users] Problem with Netscape treating a space different than Internet Explorer

[Brian Fischer]

Mapserver community,
 
I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem.  I assume there
must be a way around it, but can't find a solution.
 
Here is the problem: I am using the [layers] cgi variable in a hyperlink
like shown below.
 
http://www.houstoneng.com/mapserv/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?&map=[map]&templat
e=printmap.html&layers=[layers]&mapext=[minx]+[miny]+[maxx]+[maxy]
 
The problem is Netscape does not replace the space with a %20, but
Internet Explorer does.
 
Internet Explorer 5.5 URL:
http://www.houstoneng.com/mapserv/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?&map=projects/fgdc
/mapviewer/mapviewer.map&template=printmap.html&layers=lakes%20Rivers%20
Roads&mapext=-100.092035+47.222059+-94.531453+51.668504
 
Netscape 4.7 URL:
http://www.houstoneng.com/mapserv/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?&map=projects/fgdc
/mapviewer/mapviewer.map&template=printmap.html&layers=lakes Rivers
Roads&mapext=-96.766990+48.008085+-95.278996+49.197928
 
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Brian
