Spaces are encoded as "+" in URL style (HTTP definition).
Giving some text without filtering could give you some bad URLs. What about
characters : é, à, ç, %, *
Maybe you should add a slug column to your schema, to get
a-friendly-url-text and use it.
"Hard replacing" the spaces using str_replace(..., url_for()) supposes you
to do the same on the other side : $myArgument = str_replace("_"," ",
$myArgument)
But what about "_" ? They disappear ?
Use slug ;)
