Webmaster Forum / ColdFusion / Advanced Techniques / January 2007Replacing "+" in url variable to spaces
Hello, thanks in advance for your help. I want to pass a url variable as a title for a page. I want to separate the words with a "+" in the url.. then when I output it on the webpage, I want to "+" to get replaced with spaces. Is there a function that will do that? Thanks, Steve Why bother using plus signs as word separators? Use blanks. Before you put the title into the URL, use the function URLEncodedFormat() to encode the spaces. If that does not work for your application some reason (such as the text is already delimited with plus signs when you get it), you can use the Replace() function to change the plus signs to spaces before you display the title. Mike, thanks for the reply... I was just trying to get pointed in the right direction. I'm going to look into the replace () function. Steve Many search applications use the "+" delimiter for the search term in the URL. So this isn't that uncommon. |
