title: Can Apache handle + (plus) sign for space in URL?
body: <p>My PHP web app generates URL's for <strong>files</strong> (images) where it puts <code>+</code> (plus) sign instead of space in the file name due to function <code>urlencode()</code>. But Apache doesn't translate <code>+</code> to space, it throws a 404 error. When I use <code>rawurlencode()</code>, spaces are encoded with <code>%20</code>, which works.</p>
  
  <p>But I like <code>+</code> sign in URL more :) how to set Apache to recognize it? Or is it a bad idea?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
