Lots of % codes in filenames
Lately it seems like most of the files downloaded have %## translation codes in them, for example, look at the file name in this release: Plumb Crazy +1D (Loadstar)
Could it be that the uploading script isn't properly translating the filename when it gets uploaded? |

It's very easy to fix. Just decode the URL for the download display link.
You can do it via Javascript with decodeURIComponent or use the urldecode function in PHP. |

Added the sugested urldecode for displaying the link.
Also added the urldecode to the script that fetches the file form the fileserver and sends it to the user. Not sure if that will mess up the download in certain cases - if it does please let me know. :) |

while at it, add a TRIM to all input boxes, its annoying as fuck if you paste something in there and have to remove leadin or trailing spaces to make some search query work :) (now that i say it, i see its fixed in the sidebar, eh =D) |

Better now? :)
Is there anywhere where it might seem fit NOT to trim input? |

While not really caring for %escaped filenames too much really I truely wish for binary entries on the database not being uploaded multiple times when actually containing different releases.
E.g. the made up example "DISK181b.d64" is uploaded several times as the binary to a diskmag, some tool AND some silly note... Geez thx for letting me look at the same disk three times - FUCK YOU UPLOADER OF SOME SILLY SWAPPER MADE DISK!
Take your time to extract, put together and rename properly - FUCKIN PLEASE! |

If I am not totally mistaken, I heard voices requesting exactly the opposite - not to rip spread disks apart.
I for my part will not bother, I think I spend quite enough time with uploading. :-) And I also upload a mixed disk only once, and then just copy-paste the download link, not to waste space unneccesarily. |
