View Full Version : This was reported by one of my users...

I put a link up at my site to get user feedback on switching to this proggie and on of them reported this:



There's a flaw in the program: If you log in with a user name that has a space in it, it will give you an error that says "invalid URL"
That's easily fixed by adding this line to the login script:

$username =~ s| |%20|g;

Added to original: Assuming that it's a PERL script.


His username here (and there) is Lord Raven. I know he uses Nutscrape 4.7

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the note.

I've just tried logging in as Lord Raven, and it appears to work fine with the version of Netscape 4.6.

I'm going to investigate all the Netscape issues in depth tomorrow morning - we'll find this problem! :)

All the best,

James

James,
He got the upon registration, and not since. I guess it occurs when the login/password is part of the URL (another problem I hope you fix soon)

Thanks for the info - I'll get those problems ironed out asap :)
