From: Bob on 28 Mar 2010 19:03 Hello: As usual, I've run into a problem with something that is probably so simple... any help is appreciated. I'm using the webbrowser control with the navigate method. The url I'm using needs a space (which I know is not normally allowed, but it works directly in firefox and IE). Here's some sample code: ------------------------------------ strWebPage = "http://www.imdb.com" &" ?" & Text2.Text txtURL.Text = strWebPage Web1.Navigate txtURL.Text Do While Web1.ReadyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE DoEvents Loop DoEvents ----------------------------------- The space is always replaced with %20/ I've tried using chr(32) , Space(1), and several other things. Thanks!! Robert Whitson

I Tried using the code at: http://vbnet.mvps.org/index.html?code/internet/urlescape.htm This ends up decoding the URL to: http://www.imdb.com/?<my text> No matter what I try, it places a forward slash directly after the base url (in this case, right after www.imdb.com) I need it to just place a space here. Any More Ideas? ... If not, Thanks Much for the help anyway. Robert

That's unusual requirements. Try searching the newsgroups for "vb URLEncode".
