Yossi Admon Bipolar (III) Inmate From: Israel Insane since: Nov 2001	posted 11-21-2001 07:57 Hi. I created a page which enable the user to give his one values to some known url parameters. Then a link with the url (just created) is added to the current page. The problem I face is that the user may enter the following characters: %, &, #, ', " .... How can I encode the string (in the client) so it will pass the right parameters to the server? Thanks in advanced Yossi.
