About URL Encoder
The URL Encoder is a secure developer utility designed to convert special characters in URL paths and query parameters into standard URL-encoded formats. URLs can only contain a specific set of ASCII characters. Special characters like spaces, question marks, and ampersands must be encoded (e.g. space becomes %20) to prevent URL breakage or query parameter issues.
How it Works
Paste your URL or text parameter into the input area and click "Encode URL". The tool encodes the text instantly and displays it in the output box, ready to copy.
Key Features
- URL Encoding: Encodes special characters into standard formats.
- Robust Handling: Encodes spaces, ampersands, slashes, and more.
- One-Click Copy: Easily copy the encoded output.
- Local Processing: Runs entirely in your browser.
Technical Details
The encoder uses JavaScript's native encodeURIComponent() function, which encodes all characters except standard ASCII letters, numbers, and specific symbols (- _ . ! ~ * ' ( )). This is the standard method for encoding query parameters.
