Hi,
KMelon is great. I use it on my Aptiva pc with AMD 300. The fastest browser by far.
I know that this problem was bug 200 and supposedly has been fixed, but when I download attachments with kmeleon 1.02, the downloaded file name has %20 instead of blank spaces. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.

Can you post an example link to a file with %20 in filename to download for test it?
Thanks.

Thanks for your response. Download any file with blank spaces in the name.

Blank spaces are simply not allowed in URIs, they're always escaped with %20. There may be a lot of software components involved between uploading and finally downloading "a file". Any of these components could rename it to "a%20file". It's not necessarily the browser...

Thanks for your response. The problem does seem to be with kmeleon, because the same files downlaoaded with IEExplore don't have this problem.

yes, i also have this problem, and pablo is right, the same file i downloaded with IE doesn't have problem with this &20 issue. Could K-meleon release update to fix this bug??
