| 1 | **Discussion:** You select 'Run as...' > WOApplication; the project runs; you can copy the url out of the console and into the browser; but it doesn't conveniently launch straight into the browser anymore. | ||

However, a space is not a legal character for a URL as we know, and must usually be escaped with UTF-8 encoding as '%20'. |
