[SOLVED] Download from a SourceForge URL with white spaces

I was trying to make a PKGBUILD for The Butterfly Effect, a free game which is still in it's Milestone 7 version. The thing is I'm not able to use this URL to download the source:
"http://download.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/tbe/files/Milestone 7/TheButterflyEffect-M7.src.tgz"
That is probably because the white space, and it must be SourceForge's fault, since neither wget (the one used with PKGBUILDs) nor Konqueror can download from that location, which I think is correct (I use others that way for other PKGBUILDs).
So...
1) Am I wrong, and I should write the URL with another syntax, or
2) is there a trick for cases like this one?

I don't know what's the matter with your software, but the correct link to the file is
http://sunet.dl.sourceforge.net/project/tbe/Milestone%207/TheButterflyEffect-M7.src.tgz
A space in a weblink usually translates into %20. See this for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding

Firefox 3 cannot download files with white space in the filename

When opening attachments in e-mail Firefox is unable to handle files with white space in the name. This is not the same as the white space file name truncation problem documented on this site (where file names with white space are truncated on saving.) The issue is that the browser will prompt to allow the file to be saved, but it will not prompt to open the file as an option. If I rename the file to remove white space then I do receive the "Open with..." dialog box. I verified that Firefox 2 did not have this problem and I can open attachments with white space in the file names just fine using that version of the browser (2.0.0.20).
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Upgraded to version 3

When a user clicks on an attachment with spaces, the filename is truncated to the first whitespace. While IE, Chrome & Safari handle this, Firefox refuses to accept mime headers with unquoted filename parameters. According to Firefox's bugzilla/knowledgebase, Firefox's behavior is the correct behavior and it's a problem with most webservers or web applications. This problem can be easily corrected by surrounding the filename parameter with double quotes.
Eg.
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + fileName + "\"");

Allowing PDF downloads from a specific URL

I accidentally blocked an URL (e.g. www.XXXXX.org) and now I need to download from that site but I can't. I went into Privileged Access and under Add File I added said URL but it still blocks me. Any advice?

Blocked where: your browser, firewall, ...? You need to unblock it from where you blocked it in the first place.
What exactly do you get when you try to download anything from that URL? (Adobe Reader is not involved in downloading anything.)

Downloads from web sites fail with an unknown error

Ant 1.6.5 VSS path properties with white space?

Could any one please help me with this problem?
I want to use Ant to check out the files from a VSS database by using the Ant vssget task.
The configuration manager uses path names i VSS with a lot of white space like this:
vss.project.path=$/Service Deliveries/B. Projects/RKMS/15_Source_Code/MLISRKMS149 - UNIX Daemon Control
I get a error return code from vssget task when I try go fetch the files.
How can I solve the problem. I am not allowed to rename any thing in VSS. My vssget task looks like this:
<target name="vss-get-files" depends="check-properties"
description="Check the package files out from VSS to the local disk">
<vssget localPath="${basedir}"
recursive="true"
login="${vss.user},${vss.password}"
ssdir="${vss.ss.path}"
serverPath="${vss.server.path}"
vsspath="${vss.project.path}"
failonerror="true"
writable="false"
autoresponse="Y"/>

Weblogic 9.x supports only JDK 1.5 ? Now, Iam trying to perform same build using Weblogic 8.1 SP5 and Iam not able to find javax.jms.ConnectionFactory in weblogic.jar, where as in Weblogic 9.x 'weblogic.jar' javax.jms.ConnectionFactory' is found.
code snippet:
String url = "t3://" + hostName + ":" + hostPort;
Environment environment = new Environment();
environment.setProviderUrl( url );
environment.setInitialContextFactory( weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory );
Context context = environment.getInitialContext();
ConnectionFactory factory = (ConnectionFactory)context.lookup( "..." );
Connection theConnection = factory.createConnection();
Iam using SUN JDK 1.4.2.11 ( even did try Weblogic JDK). I have weblogic.jar and JDK/tools.jar included in my classpath.
What other jar files we need to included in my classpath to make this code to work in weblogic 8.1SP5 ?

Query return/wddx with white space

i have a query return i am looking at which i will send it to
another program but for some reason this is coming with some white
space. i have following questions.
if i make changes on the admin console for white space
management do i need to reboot.
i am trying to use cfsetting but it is still producing some
white spaces at the beginging. when i see the source.

The CF admin setting helps but does not completely solve
whitespace issues. (Look at the source for these forum pages, for
example..)
Also, beware of people who tell you to strip the whitespace
off after the fact by manipulating CF output as though it were a
string.
Put this at the top of your Application.cfm or
Application.cfc:
<CFSETTING EnableCFOutputOnly = "yes">
This means that nothing makes it to the page unless it is
inside <CFOUTPUT> tags or in WriteOutput ().
This is good practice anyway because it encourages you to
separate output code from logic and makes you more conscious of
whitespace as you code.
Finally, for XML to some programs or the <DOCTTYPE>
declaration to IE know that the output must be immediately after
the first <CFOUTPUT> with no whitespace of any type.
IE:
<CFOUTPUT><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
works but
<CFOUTPUT>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
doesn't.

Replacing Selected Areas with White Space

I am using Acrobat version 8 on an XP Pro SP2 system.
I have a PDF file. Certain selected areas I wish to replace with pure white space. How can I do that?

You will find other ways which SEEM to remove blank material but avoid
them like the plague since it is very easy to get back the hidden
material. Redaction needs specialist tools. There is a plug-in, Redax

JDK 1.6 Installation INSTALLDIR with white space

Hi,
I am trying to install jdk 1.6 in silent mode. I am using following command:
<jdk1.6>.exe /s INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\CA\IAM\JDK1.6"
But this shows me the usage dialog. When I remove INSTALLDIR then it gets installed in Program Files\Java. When I use a INSTALLDIR path that does not contain any white space then also it gets installed successfully. What could be the problem with the white space in "Program Files"?
Thanks,
Rajeev

Ah, I found it. For anyone interested the answer can be found in a bug report addressing this very issue:

Remove XML Tags with White space.

Hi All, I have a scenario like the below code where I have empty spaces in few columns of my tables. I create XML of the data and send it. There is a lot of code such and I can't add ISNULL() on each and every column. Is there any simple one line code working
with the XML so that I can remove the tags with only empty spaces. TIA.
DECLARE @xml1 VARCHAR(max)
DECLARE @xml2 VARCHAR(max)
set @xml1 = (SELECT 1 AS Col11, ' ' AS Col21, 'ABC' AS Col31 FOR XML RAW, ELEMENTS)
set @xml2 = (SELECT 2 AS Col12, ' ' AS Col22, 'ABC' AS Col32 FOR XML RAW, ELEMENTS)
DECLARE @xml xml;
SET @xml = Cast('<ROOT>' + ISNULL(@xml1, '') + ISNULL(@xml2, '') + '</ROOT>' as xml)
SET @xml.modify('delete //*[not(node())]');
-- Some Way to Remove the XML Tags with Empty space here.
select @xml as XMLString
/* Output of the Above script.
<ROOT>
<row>
<Col11>1</Col11>
<Col21> </Col21> -- This XML Tag with a white space should be removed
<Col31>ABC</Col31>
</row>
<row>
<Col12>2</Col12>
<Col22> </Col22> -- This XML Tag with a white space should be removed
<Col32>ABC</Col32>
</row>
</ROOT>

It would have helped if there had been a trim() function in XQuery.
With some trial and error and inventive thinking I came up with this:
<span style="color:Blue">SET</span> @xml.modify(<span style="color:#A31515">'delete //*[. <= " "]'</span>);
As they say: it seems to work. But I leave no warranties.

Problema with white space at the bottom

Hi,
Try a new post asking for a site check or a site critique -
you'll no
doubt get differing advice about best practises on the
construction -
take what you get objectively, most will be constructive,
don't be
disheartened and don;t forget it's your client who is the
person you
most have to please.
I think it looks great and for a first site - quite
incredible really -
you seem to have a fairly good grasp on what's going on with
the code
and (you may get crit for using absolute positioning) you
also seem to
have a grasp on relative and absolute positioning.
One wee thing I see (sorry don't have time to trouble shoot
for you) is
a slight layout difference between IE and FF - possibly a
double margin
bug - a bigger gap between the centre and the right columns!
Oh - and you might want to consolidate your css - shift the
embedded
styles to your linked sheet.

Need help with white spaces/halos when creating PNG

I'm using Illustrator CS6 on Windows 7. I'm trying to create some pushpins that will go on an online map. I've created the graphic in Illustrator and everything looks nice and sharp. My problem is when I try to convert this .ai file to png. The ai file is set up on 8.5 x 11 artboard with the graphic taking up the whole artboard; the final size of the png needs to be 20x34 pixels at 72 dpi.
I've tried both Save for Web and Export but no matter what I do, when I open the png in Photoshop, there is a white space between the grey pushpin and the black stroke as well as around the outside of the S. No matter what I've tried, I can't get rid of these unwanted white spaces/halos. Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? The large image below is how it looks in Illustrator; the small image is the png opened in Photoshop. How can I get the small png to be as crisp as the large ai file? Thanks.

mc-mark,
Are you sure the artwork is contained within whole pixels on the Artboard?
One way to obtain that is to move the artwork so that the Transform panel tells you that the X and Y values of the lower left corner (or centre or something else) are whole pixels/points; another way is to tick Align to Pixel grid in the Transform panel, but I am afraid that may distort the artwork when used at this stage.

Replace period with white space

I am trying to replace a period in a string with a white space. It does not want to work with a period but works just fine with a comma!
Please can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong.
This is the code that I am using:
System.out.println("Unicode:" + "\u002E");
CharSequence inputStr = "12.345,67";
String patternStr = "\u002E";
String replacementStr = " ";
//Compile regular expression
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(patternStr);
//Replace all occurrences of pattern in input
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(inputStr);
String output = matcher.replaceAll(replacementStr);
System.out.println("output:" + output);

As mentioned "." is considered differently in regular expressions. You can change the patterStr to "[.]" and your code will work.
Since you have used replaceAll() I guess as the size of inputStr varies many thousand seperator can occur. Even then the fix mentioned by me will work
Thanks
Arun

Problem with white space

Hi,
I do an insert in a table. I try to insert a white space in a varchar2(1) field. I use parameter query.
But when i try to do this, odp.net insert a NULL value instead of the white space.
Is there a parameter to change to avoid this problem ??
Thanks in advance.

Not sure if this is exactly the issue but
you could try the current Patch 4147997
ODP.NET Patchset 9.2.0.4.15
or try a Workaround of binding parameters as Char which does not remove trailing spaces:
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OracleParameter("data",
OracleDbType.Char,10)).Value=" ";
or
cmd.Parameters.Add("data",
OracleDbType.Char,10," ",
System.Data.ParameterDirection.Input);

Tried 2 different cards and different ports and same is happening. Can see the camera in Lightroom but just freezes when clicking onto it?

HT2534 How can i download from two different store with the same account?

I live in both countries but my credit card is registered in a french bank, therefore it is not recognised by the Aussie store on itunes. There are apps or music i want to get form the Aussie store as well as music and other apps from the french one...
Is it possible to have two stores under the same account????? I wish apple could fix this, which could result in more spending as you can buy from different store!

Wait 90 days
Why would you start a new account? Why not just correct the original account?
