note 82281 added to function.urldecode

It's worth pointing out that if you are using AJAX and need to encode strings that are being sent to a PHP application, you may not need to decode them in PHP. <?php echo stripslashes(nl2br($_POST['message'])); ?> Will properly output a message sent with the javascript code if the message is encoded: message = encodeURIComponent(message) And is sent with an AJAX POST request with the header: ajaxVar.setRequestHeader('Content-type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded') ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 137.123.62.200 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.urldecode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/82281 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82281/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82281/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82281/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82281/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82281/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82281/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82281 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/82281 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
