Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

Ubuntu 7.10, Nautilus 2.20.0

When connecting to a secure WebDAV directory hosted on Windows Sharepoint 2003 all directories are listed, including those with spaces in the name. When trying to open a directory that contains a space in the directory name I receive an error:
---
"Couldn't find "davs://<email address hidden>/8554043/School%20Staff".
Please check the spelling and try again.
---
The directory then disappears from the root directory listing but on a refresh it reappears.

I have tried recreating the error on a standard IIS web folder but the issue seems to be specific to Sharepoint. However, I can access the folder on sharepoint using windows explorer.

I found the exact same issue when mounting webdav offered by Knowledgetree. Knowledgetree (http://www.knowledgetree.com) offers a webdav mount to the documents it manages through a php script. (at least in our version, which is 3.4.2)
Mounting works, browsing folders with names without spaces works fine. When there is a space in the name, I get the error again.

don't reopen closed bugs only because you have a similar issue, hardy uses gvfs which is new codebase
