encode decode

[robert_gsfame]

I have created a function in which the value has been encoded, how can i decode the value?

unescape???or there is another way

If you created encoding function, you should know how to decode it. Just do what encoding function does in reverse (unless it implements some assymetric algorithm, which I doubt).

i have this in my html code

onclick="test('$test1')"

 

just let say $test1 ==>simple media@#$%^& has been encoded using urlencode so that i will have this Simple+Media%40%21%24%25%5E%26%2A%

 

function test(x){

var test=unescape(x)

alert('test')

}

 

using unescape will still leave the + sign, and when i use replace to change the sign with space, how come i still find the + sign???

Use the decodeURIComponent function.

[robert_gsfame]

not working..... the plus + sign is still there replacing the " "

[robert_gsfame]

i use replace , unescape, decodeURI

everything cannot replace the + with space

[robert_gsfame]

finally!!! var test=unescape(str.replace(/\+/g, " "));

Ahh, I totally misread the posts. Anyway, glad you got it sorted.
