Posting to Twitter, can't use spaces

Hi all,

I'm trying to post to twitter, and I have it successfully working from web, however from my iOS mobile device it adds + characters where spaces should be.

Has anyone dealt with this?

I've done a lot of digging and can't seem to find anything on it.

Cheers Jeff

Not sure if its the case any more; Im out of touch with web,

But I think %20 was used for spaces once upon a time.

I performed some random google search. I replaced the search terms in the address bar with test%20test.

Here's the result

Thanks, I tried that previously and it just entered a whole bunch of %20 in my twitter post :P
