Saving Picture to File with Spaces in File Name

Hi Magnus,



Just a quick check:

Might it be that strIDAndType variable contains characters that are not allowed in the file names?



Sys.Desktop.Picture.SaveToFile("c:\a a.png")

worked fine for me.

Try this out (i believe your problem happens because you're using only one slash)



Path = "C:\\folder\\subfolder\\auto tests\\";



Another useful function I found out is this:



 // function that executes path that contains space chars

var objShell = new ActiveXObject("shell.application");        

objShell.ShellExecute(ficheiro, "", "Path", "open", 1);

Not sure what caused this but I have never had to use \\ in paths that I can remember. I ended up creating the screenshot file name from strings taken from different on-screen objects instead.

Thanks anyway!

When the image that gets imported has spaces in the file name they get imported and saved as HTML encoded characters. So a file that is: "imported file.png" will be saved as "imported%20file.png".



This will generally be ok on linux systems but in windows systems (IIS at least, not sure about apache), later use of the image will not work properly.



It should be saved as it originally was and maybe even have an option to allow the admin to replace spaces with dashes or something.
