[PHP] Strings with Spaces in URLS
I have come up with a bit of a problem I have a little funky search form on a page, and when I send the search data on as a URL, anything with a space is screwed up example $search = This is a test; echo a href=http://www.blah.com/foo.php?search=$search; and when the link is clicked (or even when the mouse is put over the link), the URL in the browser is - http://www.blah.com/foo.php?search=This leaving out all words after the first space. If I simply throw the while thing using the following header statement header(Location: http://www.blah.com/foo.php?search=$search;); then it brings it up properly in the browser. Any suggestions ?

$search = This is a test; echo a href=http://www.blah.com/foo.php?search=$search; You'll want this: echo a href=http://www.blah.com/foo.php?search=.urlencode($search).; ^^ Jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
