clearly people don't understand what to do about the "WHITESPACE in QUERY" message. consider giving advice "replace spaces with %20"

Comment 1 Simon Pieters 2009-07-30 14:32:30 CEST

I added "Spaces should be escaped as %20." to iri and iri-ref in http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/MicrosyntaxDescriptions , maybe that's good enough.

I'm looking through old bugs...

This one I fixed quite a while back. The error message now reads, "Whitespace in query component. Use %20 in place of spaces."
