Hi,
I am trying to build a script that will upload files to my servers. This script has a block of instructions like
Tell Application "URL Access Scripting"
upload this_file to this_server replacing yes with progress without binhexing
end tell
but, this script fails miserably if the server’s username contains a @ character, i.e., example: josh@server.com
this is because the upload line will contain two @, as in
upload this_file to "ftp://josh@server:password@server.com" replacing yes with progress without binhexing
you see? two @ on the same command!
another question is: how can I pass these two @ to the upload command of URL Access Scripting?
note: Safari will fail miserably too when trying to access an URL with two @ (I have reported this to apple)
