Nest a fileset instead of using the files attribute. I guess the files attribute may accept several files, which are space separated. So does not work for files locating in pathes with spaces. Cheers, Antoine --- Ursprüngliche Nachricht --- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] An: user@ant.apache.org

Sorry, don't know where to post this. It's really an Anthill question. I created a schedule in anthill (http://localhost:8080/anthill/ and running tomcat) on my winXP and I embedded the an ampersand in the name(e.g. AB Project); now I get error messages that I can not delete or edit it.

Re: AntHill Question

If the name is stored in XML try renaming it manually, then deleting it via GUI. I think the reason for the failure is the failure to encode ampersand. Try putting HTML or XML its encodings. Also maybe AntHill is already fixed. Did you try its latest version? - Alexey. S I wrote: Sorry,
