URL Encoder Decoder

A URL encoder decoder is a tool that converts text into a format that is safe to use in URLs. URLs can only contain certain characters, such as letters, numbers, and some symbols. Other characters, such as spaces, punctuation marks, and accents, must be encoded before they can be used in a URL.

URL encoding replaces unsafe characters with a percent sign (%) followed by two hexadecimal digits. The hexadecimal digits represent the ASCII value of the unsafe character. For example, the space character is encoded as "%20".

URL decoding reverses the encoding process, converting encoded characters back to their original ASCII values.

URL encoders and decoders can be used for a variety of purposes, such as:

• Encoding and decoding text in URLs
• Encoding and decoding text in other applications, such as HTML forms and email messages
• Converting text between different character encodings

There are a number of different URL encoders and decoders available, both online and offline. Some popular URL encoders and decoders include:

• Online URL Encoder Decoder
• URL Encoder Decoder by Code Beautify
• URL Encoder Decoder by URL Encoder
• URL Encoder Decoder by FreeFormatter.com

To use a URL encoder or decoder, simply enter the text that you want to encode or decode into the tool's input field. The tool will then generate the encoded or decoded text, which you can then copy and paste into the desired location.

Here are some tips for using a URL encoder or decoder:

• Make sure that the text that you are encoding or decoding is valid.
• If you are encoding or decoding text for a specific application, such as a HTML form or email message, make sure that the application supports the encoding that you are using.
• If you are encoding or decoding text between different character encodings, make sure that the character encodings are compatible.

URL encoders and decoders can be a valuable tool for anyone who needs to encode or decode text for use in URLs or other applications.
