If someone changes the arrangement of their screen name (for instance BigOSoftWare is different from Big O Software) then it is considered two different screen names in the history. Altough this usually doenst matter for most people dont change the arrangement a lot, I iwsh this was different.

Hmm...Good point. When you change it in AIM it doesnt care if your name is BigOSoftware...or BiG o SoFtWaRe.. but the History Does.

Well.. maybe you could fix that? If memory serves me correct..To fix it you need to UrlEncode those name text strings..so spacing wouldn't have an effect on it. Am I correct ?? Or is this just with PHP.. Heh
