[Resolved] Blank space in url

[Megahertza]

I have a script that ads messages to a file with the name of person who sent the message.

My problem Is I am using PHP 5 and my freehost is using 4.3.

$name = $_GET[name];
$message = $_GET[message];
if ($name != NULL) {
$file_pointer = "shout.txt";
$file_handle = fopen($file_pointer, "a");
fwrite($file_handle, "$name" . "||" . "$message" . "|+|");
}

If i was to enter the message "Hello World", it would write to file "Hello". Can I sent blank space in the url.

Hi,

if you want to send that string as GET parameter (in the url) manually then write

Hello%20World

In a script use something like

$avar = urlencode("a string with spaces");

This is being sent by a form, should I send it by $_POST instead

I sent it by $_POST an it works fine
