URL hex characters

[damiantaylor]

Hi,

I have a form (get method) with a couple of check boxes on it, each check box has the same name:

 

<input type="checkbox" name="price[]" value="10">

<input type="checkbox" name="price[]" value="20">

 

When I hit the submit button, the URL passes the square brackets as %5B%5D.

The php script that processes the form still recognises it as an array so it works ok, but it looks untidy.

Is there a way to make the square brackets show as [] in the URL rather than %5B%5D?

Or, is there an even better way to pass the checkbox values?

 

Thank you!

No, it's required by RFC 1738 (Uniform Resource Locators), section 2.2.
