dom3787 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Hi, I've been struggling a while with that and I'm clueless, if anyone has an idea, many thanks. Here's my issue, I have an URL I'd like to open that contains spaces (might contain special chars like ' as well), and I'm using FF.au3, it doesn't work, I tried replacing them with %20, it doesn't either #include "FF.au3" _FFStart() _FFOpenURL("_url_with_spaces_") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Show us a real world example of what you're trying to do, one that points to a real website so it can be tested. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

Solution dom3787 Posted September 19, 2014 Author Solution Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) ok, I (finally) made a little progress, the spaces weren't the culprit, it was an accentuated character, in other words : _FFOpenURL('https://www.google.com/search?q=hello world') works _FFOpenURL('https://www.google.com/search?q=hello à world') doesn't work _FFOpenURL("https://www.google.com/search?q=hello'world") doesn't work either getting _FFOpenURL ==> No match: https://www.google.com/search?q=hello'world by MozRepl Edit : I had in mind that URL encoding didn't work since I had typed {hello%20à%20world} and I was still getting the error... but these examples work : for the spaces : _FFOpenURL("https://www.google.com/search?q=hello%20world") for the ' : _FFOpenURL("https://www.google.com/search?q=hello%27world") However I still can't make an example with à to work _FFOpenURL("https://www.google.com/search?q=helloàworld") _FFOpenURL("https://www.google.com/search?q=helloàworld") none of these work Edit 2 : crap I was mixing HTML code, ISO and URL encoding (iso-8859-1) sorry :-D so the answer is (for {hello à world}) : _FFOpenURL("https://www.google.com/search?q=hello %e0 world") Edited September 19, 2014 by dom3787 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
