.htaccess: Spaces in URL
I recently had to create an .htaccess mod_rewrite rule to *preserve* an old URL that had spaces. After looking around, I found a simple solution that worked for the page in question: Just enclose the URL in quotes!
code snippet:
RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks -Indexes
RewriteRule "^Old Filename With Spaces.htm" new-file.php [QSA,L] sample output:
This example preserves the original URL.
