- URL encoding the space character: + or %20? - Stack Overflow
As the aforementioned RFC does not include any reference of encoding spaces as +, I guess using %20 is the way to go today For example, "%20" is the percent-encoding for the binary octet "00100000" (ABNF: %x20), which in US-ASCII corresponds to the space character (SP)
- In a URL, should spaces be encoded using %20 or +? [duplicate]
@MetaByter I think it is more technically correct to phrase the question as "In a URL, should I encode the spaces using %20 or + in the query part of a URL?" because while the example you show includes spaces only in the query part, it might not be clear to all readers that the answer depends
- When should space be encoded to plus (+) or %20? [duplicate]
Sometimes the spaces get URL encoded to the + sign, and some other times to %20 What is the difference and why should this happen?
- A html space is showing as %2520 instead of %20 - Stack Overflow
311 A bit of explaining as to what that %2520 is : The common space character is encoded as %20 as you noted yourself The % character is encoded as %25 The way you get %2520 is when your url already has a %20 in it, and gets urlencoded again, which transforms the %20 to %2520 Are you (or any framework you might be using) double encoding
- The origin on why %20 is used as a space in URLs
I am interested in knowing why '%20' is used as a space in URLs, particularly why %20 was used and why we even need it in the first place
- Can I replace % 20 with nbsp in URLs that have spaces?
Depending on your point of view, that's not quite correct %20 represents a space, but nbsp; represents a non-breaking space, technically a separate character So even if it were a good idea to use HTML escaping in URLs, this wouldn't work because it would replace one character with another, changing the meaning of the URL
- http - Spaces in URLs? - Stack Overflow
Since it's not mentioned anywhere in the grammar, the only way to encode a space is with percent-encoding (%20) In fact, the RFC even states that spaces are delimiters and should be ignored: In some cases, extra whitespace (spaces, line-breaks, tabs, etc ) may have to be added to break a long URI across lines
