What I recognize is the redirection of STDERR with 2> which is written to some temp file that has the parent shell's PID in it's filename.


Variable "na" is defined with the content of the temp file. After that the temp file is removed.

No offense but you should generally have a look into this:

Thank you for your reply.
I also have taken that code from that site you gave.

WebCommon.urlEncode(3kaya)				       Kaya module reference					WebCommon.urlEncode(3kaya)

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://".
