Special Character in an uploaded file

Hey,

I am running MojoPortal 2.4.0.0 and tested this in tinyMCE and CKEditor and noticed that when I upload a file for a link and the file has a special character in the name. Ex. @,$,%,#. The user does not get a warning or an error, the document is also not renamed. When you click the new link to the document with the special character the link resolves to a broken page server error. 

I know that when you create a new page with a special character the character is replaced with "-" for the url. I was wondering if a warning of some kind could prompt the user to change the name or if the same kind of replacement could be added to the file upload?

 

Thanks,

Nicholas

Re: Special Character in an uploaded file

I will add logic to remove those characters from uploaded file names. spaces are already replaced with -.

Best,

Joe
