URL Encode (Percent-encoding)
- URL encoding (also known as percent encoding) is a technique for converting characters that are either not allowed in URLs or have special meanings into a format that can be safely transmitted.
Characters to be encoded
- Characters to be encoded include symbols (such as :, /, ?, #, [, ], @, etc.), reserved characters with special meanings, and non-ASCII characters (such as Japanese or other multilingual characters) that cannot be used directly in URLs.
Encoding Method
- The general encoding method involves first converting the target characters into their byte representation using UTF-8, then converting each byte into its hexadecimal form, and finally prefixing each hex value with a '%' symbol. For example, the Japanese character 'あ' becomes '%E3%81%82'.
