Description Marcos Caceres 2012-12-03 15:32:30 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #20177 +++

The img src attribute and srcset behaves different when presented with spaces: for example,  "Screenshot 10.2.2012 100 1x 2x Funny Cat.jpeg" in @srcset results in "Screenshot" as the candidate. However, when fed to img@src, the resource name is parsed as expected. 

Confirmed by: http://responsiveimagescg.github.com/picture-refimp/demo/?srcset=Screenshot+10.2.2012+100+1x+2x+Funny+Cat.jpeg

Yeah, but there's not much we can do about it. In any case, they're non-conforming in both cases, so it's not really a big deal.
