    hello, could someone be kind enough to let me know what code I'd need to place in mod_rewrite in order to replace % and spacing in between words in title with Underscore or Hyphen

    so if a title of a file is /The Title/ and in browsers it shows as /The%20Title/

    I'd like to remove the % and place instead /The-Title/

    I know that's doable in mod_rewrite.... but I don't know how.

    Please let me know.
    thanks.

    Ali

    the following:

    --------
    Is ([0-9a-zA-Z.'_\-]+) secure? After leting some extra craracters in, all the URLs started working.

    ([^.]+) also works, and ([0-9a-z.'_\-]+) does when it ends with [NC].
    ---------
    was mentioned in the tutorial of the apache in this forum....

    I'm trying to get rid of %20 that shows up instead of space!
    but I tried all combinations of such things .. and nothing's doing it!

    can someone please give me a line of code please that would work for the whole site and not just for one component's category and product and item! (component of joomla in this case ...)

    Thanks
