Re: String handling with special char?

Hi Frewuill, Thanks for the mail. The parameters are passed from an end user via HTTP GET and on receipt I use urlencode($parametername) but, the parameter only contains data up to the 1st occurance of %00 and then ends. Calling the following code with 'script.php?text=%0A%01%00%B1%B2' would output '%0A%01' only. <? $text=urlencode($text); echo($text); ?> Am I missing something in your solution? Any ideas?
