`urlEncode(text)`

URL-encodes text the way HTML forms do: a space becomes + and other unsafe characters become %xx. encodeURIComponent() encodes the standard JavaScript way instead (a space becomes %20) — use it for URL paths and query values.

Parameters

textstringrequired

Text to encode.

Returns

An encoded string.

Example

Mixed HTML (or any text file) with inline JavaScript between hash signs.

<!-- Output: 1+2+3 -->
#docly.urlEncode("1 2 3")#

The template above produces this output:

<!-- Output: 1+2+3 -->
1+2+3
