Frequently Asked Questions

What characters get encoded?

Reserved characters (like ?, &, =, #), unsafe characters (spaces, quotes, brackets), and non-ASCII characters are all percent-encoded.

Is this the same as Base64 encoding?

No. URL encoding and Base64 are different. URL encoding converts characters into %XX format for safe URL transmission.
