About filenames

Files and folders need to be properly named so they can be uploaded correctly to the server hardware you're working with, whether it's Windows, Mac OS, UNIX, DOS, or some other operating system. GoLive comes with a set of filename rules that ensure cross-platform compatibility. When a filename violates one of the rules, the Errors tab of the site window and the File Inspector indicate the problem. The File Inspector also lists the rule itself.

You can examine, modify, delete, and add filename rules. (See Changing filename constraints.)

When naming files and folders, use lowercase to avoid case-sensitivity problems and don't include spaces in the name. Spaces in file and folder names are automatically converted to the URL escape code "%20" during the FTP process. As a result, some links and file references might become invalid.
