Hi, Thierry.

When the file name contains a space, urlEncode encodes the space as +, which 
regex interprets, causing the match to fail and tSize to be empty.  The \Q...\E 
causes regex to see everything enclosed as a literal, including the +, so the 
match succeeds and tSize is correct.

Glad you like it.
