Spaces in Parameters

Greetings, I am having a little trouble with Netscape. There are some parameters that I am passing in a url to use later in a script. These parameters may or may not have spaces in them. IE automatically replaces the spaces with %20 to make the parameter work, however Netscape does not do this. So in IE it looks like member%20name and works correctly while NN passed member name and it does not work Now this is data drawn from a database. How can I make it so that data drawn from the database when it is passed to the url automatically adds the %20 so it will work in NN. Thanks -- Phillip S.
