使用NSString和UIImageView从URL加载图像，某些URL失败

Question

I've got some code to load an image from a URL, it seems to work ok. Unless the URL contains curly brackets. This seems like it is a string formatting problem? I can't figure it out.

ex @" http://site/image.png //works

@" http://site/ {image}.png //doesn't work

    NSString* mapURL = @"http://site.com/directory/{map}.png";
    NSLog(mapURL);
    NSData* imageData = [[NSData alloc]initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:mapURL]];

    UIImage* image = [[UIImage alloc] initWithData:imageData];
    [imageView setImage:image];
    [imageData release];
    [image release];

thanks
