I recently found an issue (for me an issue) with the naming convention of the individual users upload folder. The creation of the upload folder for example user named "Big Guy" would name the folder "BigGuy" ... the process seems to be stripping out the " " or space in the name. We run into problems when another user registers as BigGuy. If BigGuy uploads a photo he does not receive a unique upload folder rather the upload folder created for Big Guy (folder named BigGuy) is used. I searched through many posts here for a couple of hours and could not find this posted (I am however a self admitted horrible search-er). I began to look through the code..... seems in upload_images.asp strUserFolderName is being set to strLoggedInUsername... then subjected to the decodestring and charaterstrip functions... characterstrip is where we are loosing the space (ASCII 32).
Now to my question... I am sure that characterstrip is being used all over the forum... for what purpose was the space removed? I thought of setting the space to an underscore by that is also stripped by charaterstrip. For the record I am using Persits ASPUpload...
Thanks in advance for any data that you can provide.
