[SOLVED] URL Parameters Given In Hex Code--Can PHP Get Read These?

[LuckyNumber85]

Hi all, new to this forum and new to PHP in general. Tried searching on this but didn't have any luck.

 

I have a 3rd party software program that is sending me a URL with parameters similar to the following:

http://www.myurl.com/my.php?Name%3DBobJones&Address%3D1500TestStreet , with the = being given as the hex equivalent instead of a proper = sign. Because of this, my $GET commands aren't able to find the variables, since they're looking for the = sign.

 

My script works perfect if the = are manually placed where they belong, but is there a way to get PHP to read the hex equivalent and treat it as an = sign?

 

Thanks for any light you can shed on the subject,

Neil
