What is URL Encoding?
URL encoding (also known as percent-encoding) is a method to encode special characters in URLs. It replaces unsafe ASCII characters with a "%" followed by two hexadecimal digits.
Common Use Cases:
- Encoding query parameters with spaces or special characters
- Creating safe URLs for links with dynamic content
- Encoding form data for GET requests
- Handling non-ASCII characters in URLs (international domains)
Character Encoding Table:
| Character | Encoded | Description |

| %20 or + | Space | |
| & | %26 | Ampersand |
| = | %3D | Equals sign |
| ? | %3F | Question mark |
| # | %23 | Hash/Number sign |
