I have been studying a web site that uses ASP.NET and so it resides on a Windows Server but it also uses some JScript so it is worth studying. Anyway, I am moving it to a Linux server and I have noticed some differences in the way it handles files. First of all, the Windows Server is not case sensitive. But I also noticed something else. It seems that the Windows Server can have file names with spaces in them like this: "Creative%20Design%20vert_S" where the "%20" is a space. But, when I try to upload this directory to the Linux server using FileZilla it does not seem to work. And then when I try to create the directory, I get an error "Forbidden command argument". So is using %20 in a direcory name illegal in Linux?

%20 is the html encoding format of the space and is used for URL's, I don't think the filesystem will honor the %20 but you can use normal spaces in the filenames.

Have you tried our Add-Ins?

In Linux you can use quotes (ie: "My Documents") or the escape character '\' (ie: My\ Documents) when working with directories that have spaces in them.
