Problems instantiating an URL

Hello,

I fail to see why instantiating the following URL fails. Here's the code:

        NSMutableString * googleAddress = [NSMutableString stringWithString:[self stringValue]];

        // Prepare the address in a format that Google understands...
        [googleAddress replaceOccurrencesOfString:@"\n" withString:@"+" options:nil range:NSMakeRange(0, [googleAddress length])];
        [googleAddress replaceOccurrencesOfString:@" " withString:@"+" options:nil range:NSMakeRange(0, [googleAddress length])];

        NSLog(@"%@", googleAddress);
        NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:googleAddress];
        NSLog(@"%@", url);
        [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace]openURL:url];

This is the output:

2006-10-07 18:07:21.563 Test[14980:117] http://maps.google.com/maps?q=4720+Forbes+Avenue,Suite+420+Pittsburgh?+Pennsylvania?+15213+United+States
2006-10-07 18:07:21.564 Test[14980:117] (null)

If you paste the URL above in Google maps, it works fine. However, URLWithString: returns nil. Any idea why?

Thanks in advance,

-- Tito
