All I am doing is adding a file name as a variable in the URL.....http://www.mysite.com/mypage.php?variable=this is my image.jpg When I do a echo $_GET['variable']; it only writes the first word. Is there some setting that might be turned off in the php.ini file that would disable this functionality?
