FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is URL encoding?

URL encoding (percent-encoding) converts characters that are not allowed in URLs into a % followed by a two-digit hexadecimal code. For example, a space becomes %20.

When should I encode a URL?

Encode query parameter values when they contain special characters like &, =, ?, spaces, or Unicode characters.

What is the difference between encodeURI and encodeURIComponent?

encodeURI encodes a full URL and leaves characters like / and ? intact. encodeURIComponent encodes a single component (e.g. a query value) and escapes those characters too.
