Re: URLEncode and decode [Was: POST message]

It looks like that page is relying on the browser's _javascript_ implementation. I am in the habit of simply typing into the Safari address bar:

_javascript_:alert(escape("Make this text look ugly!"))

To help explain escaping and unescaping to a client, I once through together more elaborate scripts which would make good Button Bar bookmarks if you are doing this kind of thing a lot:

_javascript_:var myStr=prompt("Please enter a string to escape:"); alert("Unescaped string: " + myStr + "\n" + "Escpaped string: " + escape(myStr));

_javascript_:var myStr=prompt("Please enter a string to unescape:"); alert("Escaped string: " + myStr + "\n" + "Unescpaped string: " + unescape(myStr));

One little related tidbit I should have mentioned earlier - I've just been going through my bookmarks and remembered this handy little reference:


The URLEncode and URLDecode page <http://www.albionresearch.com/misc/urlencode.php>


which will encode and decode sections of text you provide.
