Is there such a thing as a wild card symbol in a URL?<br />
<br />
So for instance, if I wanted to go here:<br />
"www.amazon.com/books/mybooks/grinch.htm"<br />
<br />
could I have a URL with a wildcard, so it would read something like "www.amazon.con/%grinch.htm"<!--content-->Well, put it this way you cannot have spaces or foreign accented characters within a URL without encoding them.<br />
<br />
...Only alpha-numerics [0-9a-zA-Z], the special characters "$-_.+!*'()," [not including the quotes - ed], and reserved characters used for their reserved purposes may be used un-encoded within a URL."<br />
<br />
For example a space in a filename would be rendered: %20<!--content-->
