TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I would not use any special characters and limit yourself to letters, numbers, and the underscore. That's really the only way to "guarantee" that you won't have problems. Someone else mentioned that they had used & in some filenames along with spaces, and that can definitely lead to problems with browsers (even though spaces do get "changed" into %20). & are used in passing values from one HTM page to another, so I could see how a browser might choke on something like that, possibly thinking that the file name is some sort of value that it is supposed to be using in a JavaScript.
That's my two cents worth at least.
