The character " " is illegal. What?

When I try to put my pix up on "Reader's Rides," I get "the character " " is illegal," and it won't let me add my pix. What's that about? And what character? It doesn't show any characters between those quotation marks. I've written it above exactly like it says it.

Does it mean quotation marks are illegal? There aren't any quotation marks in the pic names or the file names. As for all other characters, there's nothing out of the ordinary either. Their just typical file and folder names. What's "illegal?"

What is the file name on your pc that you're trying to upload to the server? Looks like the javascript is a very simple filename checker.

Do you have a space in the file name for the image you are trying to upload?

I was thinking that as well, for the quote to contain a blank space. The javascripit is checking for valid filenames that contain "a-z", "A-Z", "0-9" or "_" as well as a format checker. Anything outside of that appears to be flagged and not accepted. A filename with a space wouldn't be accepted.

MetalliCamaroRS is probably right.
