NAME
WebCommon::urlEncode - URL encode a string SYNOPSIS
String urlEncode( String x ) ARGUMENTS
x The string to encode DESCRIPTION
URL encode a string. You should use this to encode reserved characters in URLs that you wish to be passed literally. // trying to pass "http://www.example.com" as a parameter url = "http://localhost/test.cgi?url="; url += urlEncode("http://www.example.com"); // url = http://localhost/test.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com Note that in the example above, encoding the whole URL would be incorrect - that would create a relative URL beginning "http://".
