rawurlencode - URL-encode according to RFC 3986

SYNOPSIS

       string rawurlencode (string  $str)

DESCRIPTION

	Encodes the given string according to RFC 3986.

PARAMETERS

	      o $str
		- The URL to be encoded.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns a string in which all non-alphanumeric characters except -_.~ have been replaced with a percent ( %) sign followed by two hex dig-
       its. This is the encoding described in RFC 3986 for protecting literal characters from being interpreted as special URL delimiters, and for
       protecting URLs from being mangled by transmission media with character conversions (like some email systems).

       Note

	       Prior to PHP 5.3.0, rawurlencode encoded tildes ( ~) as per RFC 1738.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      including a password in an FTP URL

	      <?php
	      echo '<a href="ftp://user:', rawurlencode('foo @+%/'),
		   '@ftp.example.com/x.txt">';
	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      <a href="ftp://user:foo%20%40%2B%25%2F@ftp.example.com/x.txt">

	Or, if you pass information in a PATH_INFO component of the URL:

       Example #2

	      rawurlencode(3) example 2

	      <?php
	      echo '<a href="http://example.com/department_list_script/',
		  rawurlencode('sales and marketing/Miami'), '">';
	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      <a href="http://example.com/department_list_script/sales%20and%20marketing%2FMiami">

OUTPUT_ADD_REWRITE_VAR(3)						 1						 OUTPUT_ADD_REWRITE_VAR(3)

output_add_rewrite_var - Add URL rewriter values

SYNOPSIS

       bool output_add_rewrite_var (string  $name, string  $value)

DESCRIPTION

	This  function	adds another name/value pair to the URL rewrite mechanism. The name and value will be added to URLs (as GET parameter) and
       forms (as hidden input fields) the same way as the session ID when transparent URL rewriting is enabled with session.use_trans_sid.  Please
       note that absolute URLs (http://example.com/..) aren't rewritten.

	This function's behavior is controlled by the url_rewriter.tags php.ini parameter.

       Note

	       Calling this function will implicitly start output buffering if it is not active already.

PARAMETERS

	      o $name
		- The variable name.

	      o $value
		- The variable value.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      output_add_rewrite_var(3) example

	      <?php
	      output_add_rewrite_var('var', 'value');

	      // some links
	      echo '<a href="file.php">link</a>
	      <a href="http://example.com">link2</a>';

	      // a form
	      echo '<form action="script.php" method="post">
	      <input type="text" name="var2" />
	      </form>';

	      print_r(ob_list_handlers());
	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      <a href="file.php?var=value">link</a>
	      <a href="http://example.com">link2</a>

	      <form action="script.php" method="post">
	      <input type="hidden" name="var" value="value" />
	      <input type="text" name="var2" />
	      </form>

	      Array
	      (
		  [0] => URL-Rewriter
	      )
