Hi,

I'm serving files via HttpResponse and currently I'm struggling with spaces 
in the filenames.

This is how I contruct the response header:

        response = HttpResponse(report.reportfile.chunks(), 
mimetype="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet")
        response['Content-Disposition'] = "attachment; filename=" + *
rep_setup.name.encode("ASCII")* + "." + 
report.date_run.strftime("%Y-%m-%d.%H%M") + ".xlsx"
        report.reportfile.close()
        return response

But if rep_setup.filename contains spaces, the browser (Firefox) truncates 
the filename at that position.

I tried to use django.utils.http.urlqoute(), but a filename like this looks 
just ugly: Some%20long%20Filename%20with%20Spaces.xlsx

Or should I just replace all Spaces with a underscore "_" character?

What is the technically correct way?

Thomas
