Why do you think that's not a valid URL?
It's because another code (Flash plugin) doesn't want to work if I provide a path (as a part of URL), containing "+" characters. At least I don't see other reasons, why the same function work for path with my home directory, and doesn't work with path, provided by _CS_DARWIN_USER_DIR.
If you look at RFC1738 you will see it explicitly says that a '+' is allowed.
Say it to Macromedia... or to Adobe?... Though I work with Flash directly (not by WebKit), so maybe the error is within my code, I leave such chance. Nevertheless, even in that case the error is just in the need of URL encoding, as I believe.
I suspect what you are actually looking for is a mechanism to encode a string for use as a field name or field value in a form encoded as the query string of a URL. If thats the case, you need to encode the '+' '=' and '&' characters yourself.
I was just about that. I've created a simple function, encoding necessary characters - blanks, pluses, etc., but I just would like to know if there is a standard way to do it by API usage. But you say - "do it yourself". Therefore I believe, the question is closed. Isn't it?
