Question

My script here works fine:

image protection in codeigniter

However it displays a broken image if my filename has a space, so say it is “obama 1.jpg”.

To try and resolve this problem, I have used http://php.net/manual/en/function.escapeshellarg.php

And replaced all the white spaces in the img_id with “%”s.

But I have had no luck. I cannot strip the white spaces out, so will have to make due with the structure of the string.

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

When you call the image just use

echo urlencode($image_name);

That should fix it!
