AIM Screen Name w/ Spaces

[jibious]

i know its already been questioned a few times w/ no actual answers that really did this (not that i found atleast), so anyhow...

if a user puts their formatted screen name w/ spaces in it (i.e.- kill the duck instead of killtheduck), is there a way to pass the entire username in the aim:goim?screenname= function.

the code to include the space is '+', so it'd be aim:goim?screenname=kill+the+duck if you wanted it to work. so is there any function that someone could do that would replace a ' ' with a '+' for AIM screen names so the aim:goim and other AIM URL functions will work properly?
