RSS feed not broken

I've been incorporating some RSS feeds into my v1.5 iOS app and many of them refused to download any information. Despite the RSS link working in my browser, the RSS feed in my app would appear blank. I figured out what was going wrong, thought I could spare others the hassle. The issue: '%20' was being inserted in the spaces of my link. For example, http://www.careerjet.com.au/search/rss.html?s=quantitative%20ecology <- doesn't work http://www.careerjet.com.au/search/rss.html?s=quantitative ecology <- works

Thanks for sharing. I had a similar issue before and resolved it by using tinyurl.com to make a new short url.
