Name
escape() — NN 2 IE J1 ECMA 1
Synopsis
escape(string[, 1])Returns a URL-encoded version of the string passed as a parameter to
the function. URL encoding converts non-alphanumeric characters to
hexadecimal values (such as %20 for the space
character). URL-encoded strings do not normally encode the plus
symbol because those symbols are used to separate components of
search strings. If you must have the plus symbol encoded as well,
Navigator 4 offers a second parameter (a numeral 1) to turn on that
switch for the method.
Returned Value
A string.
Parameters
-
string Any string value.
