Low priority, but took me hours to find! If you use the & sign in filenames of assets then in it renders the whole directory unviewable in the Resource Browser.

I think the main reason for this is because the MCPUK file browser uses URL based parameter settings as part of its javascript routine. Since the & sign is used in the URL for separating variables then the script might get confused with file and folder names that have an & character in the name. There is probably a workaround for this and would require updating the whole script to accomodate it. However, I'm not so sure I would want to spend alot of time on this. I'm currently putting together all the pieces I need to create a replacement for the current resource browser. Support for it is pretty much non-existent...which isn't good! So, we really need a new one altogether! ;)
