don't leave spaces in your files names

it adds hyphens for a reason

any file with incorrect syntax will not upload to a web page no spaces, no weird symbols like & etc should be in file names for the web

As was said you should never use spaces. Depending on the server your pages will reside on you can get all kinds of nasty problems. On my server spaces are converted to %20 and it not only looks horrible, it is unprofessional and it makes url's way longer and much harder for someone to type in. You should be able to go in and turn off the spaces to hyphens, but you shouldn't do that.

And be warned that if you do have files with spaces in their names (as I did), Dreamweaver MX would happily rename them, and correctly update all links, but Dreamweaver 8 will not, and you have to update all the links manually.

Thanks everyone for your time and advice.

You should always have your file and directory naming down before you start. I use lowercase only and when I want a space I use an underscore. This saves a lot of headaches later on. You can't count on software cleaning up your mess.
