Why not use stringByAddingPerfectEscapesUsingEncoding: rather than
your own replacing code?
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/
Classes/NSString_Class/Reference/NSString.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/
NSString/stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:
That will ensure the string is valid for a 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,
