URL Encoder

URL encoding, also known as percent-encoding, is a mechanism for encoding information in a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). URL encoding replaces unsafe ASCII characters with a "%" followed by two hexadecimal digits corresponding to the character's value in the ISO-Latin character set.

This encoding is necessary because URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character set. URL encoding ensures that all characters, including spaces, special characters, and non-ASCII characters, can be safely transmitted in URLs.

Common Uses:

• Preparing URLs with special characters for web requests
• Encoding query parameters in API calls
• Ensuring proper transmission of URLs containing spaces, unicode, or special characters
• Creating valid links that include non-standard characters
• Preparing form data for submission via GET requests
• Encoding usernames and passwords in URLs
• Creating valid bookmarks with complex parameters
