In photobucket I have a album called "5th wheel".

When I copy the photobucket link, it has the percent 20 part in the link to indicate the space character in the words "5th wheel".

Every time I try to post a pic from that album, or any other one that has a space, this forum won't post it. Just says "connection was reset".

If I copy and paste the link, and then remove the percent 20 and just put a space there, then it works.

I post on a lot of forums and this is the only forum that has the problem.

Posting from rv.net

Example:



I put the in bold so you see where it's at.

Edit: I just tried to post test of the link, not a pic, not a link, and it did the same thing.

Ok, more info.

The error happens even if I just type the percent sign and 20.

Photobucket has one of those webcrawlers that "finds" its images and deletes them...you may be encountering problems with that.

Recommend trying another photo server- at least until this website converts to a system that allows us to upload pics from our own computers like more "modern" websites do.

The RV.Net portal has been having issues for more than a week. One of the symptoms is the inability to process the % symbol..

The Woodall's portal doesn't have issues, at least, for me.

Another work-around, if you have to use the RV.Net portal, is to change the 'http' in the address line to 'https', refresh the page and then make the post. That is what I did to post the % symbol in this post. (I'm using the RV.Net portal,) Apparently, the SSL server is not having issues.

Did you read my post? Your pic does not have any spaces in the album name or in the picture so it doesn't have a percent 20 in it.
