public class URLEncoder
extends Object

The class contains a utility method for converting a String into a MIME format called "x-www-form-urlencoded" format.

To convert a String, each character is examined in turn:

  • The ASCII characters 'a' through 'z', 'A' through 'Z', '0' through '9', and ".", "-", "*", "_" remain the same.
  • The space character ' ' is converted into a plus sign '+'.
  • All other characters are converted into the 3-character string "%xy", where xy is the two-digit hexadecimal representation of the lower 8-bits of the character.

Since:
JDK1.0
