Use Programming Language to encode a URL

If you're working in PHP, JavaScript, Python, or Java, you can use the help of these codes to encode the strings.

Using the URL encoder in PHP is a breeze. Simply use the "urlencode" function, like so:

            $encoded_url = urlencode($string);
            

In JavaScript, you can use the "encodeURIComponent" function:

            var encoded_url = encodeURIComponent(string);
            

In Python, you can use the "urllib.parse.quote" function:

            import urllib.parse
            encoded_url = urllib.parse.quote(string)
            

And in Java, you can use the "URLEncoder.encode" method:

            String encoded_url = URLEncoder.encode(string, "UTF-8");
