Problem with blank spaces in image filename

My gallery doesn't display images that have a blank space in the file name.  For example, I inserted an image named 001 a.jpg, which appears as 001%20a.jpg to my IE browser and as 001 a.jpg in the directory (using ftp).

I can't view the image even by pasting either of the urls into my browser.  I was having the same problem with duplicated filenames but I solved it by replacing the ~ character with a regular letter (I used a "q").

How can I make db_input.php replace the blank space in the filename with a letter or number?

Thanks

The company that hosts my website says that it's a "Linux based system".

I fixed it by inserting a space in with the characters that aren't allowed - now it replaces blank spaces with an underscore and displays the images fine.
