Why are you doing this?  It is usually better to pass options to link_to 
or url_for, and let Rails take care of encoding the query string.  There 
are also some URL encoding methods that you can call directly if 
necessary -- check the docs.

I can't really say enough about your other two questions to make an 
answer worthwhile.  Welcome to the Rails community!

Best,
