URL Encoder & Decoder
What is Percent-Encoding?
URL encoding, also known as Percent-encoding, is a mechanism for encoding information in a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). Characters that are not allowed in a URL must be encoded using a percent sign % followed by their two-digit hexadecimal representation.
Used for empty spaces in paths.
Used within query parameters.
Encoded to avoid path splitting.
Pro Tip: When submitting forms, spaces are often encoded as +. Our decoder automatically handles both + and %20 to ensure maximum compatibility.
What is URL Encoding?
URL encoding (Percent-encoding) is used to convert characters that have special meaning in URLs (like spaces, ampersands, or slashes) into a safe format. If you need to transmit binary data, consider using ourBase64 Encoder instead.
Why process locally?
URL parameters often contain sensitive data like usernames, trackable tokens, or internal paths. By using CuscusLab, your data is processed entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is sent to our servers, keeping your research and development data private.
