If one of those URIs contains a space character in a folder name or in the filename, it will be considered as many URIs and won't properly load. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Write a simple XUL file 2.Put a widget which allows the use of datasources 3.Set the attribute to a filename containing a space Actual Results: The RDF file isn't loaded. Expected Results: The RDF file should have been loaded. Maybe change the space separation character for another, like a comma.

URIs are not allowed to contain spaces, use %20 instead.

OK, but couldn't it be done automatically ? If the developper has to do a filename.replace(/ /g, "%20") each time, it is not very user-friendly..

eh? what you should do is use valid URIs. URIs with spaces aren't valid. JavaScript provides an encodeURI function for this purpose.

Sure. But what about people writing a XUL file, and filling in the datasources attribute with a filename containing spaces (for example, a file in the profile directory, on Windows) ? OK, it is stated in the doc that the separator is the space character. But you can't say the user got any feedback saying why his rdf file won't load :\

I guess I'll reopen and move this to an XUL component...
