$ _GET for + in url get request？

Question

My project Url is like this in yii:

 http://localhost/php_pro_106/activate/Test?JJ=HEY+OOO

In my action :

public function actionTest()
   {
   print_r($_GET);
 }

I am getting:

 Array ( [JJ] => HEY OOO )

But I should get:

 Array ( [JJ] => HEY+OOO ) 

What should I do for this,I need same Url ?

Answer 1

A + in a URL means a space. So you get the result you should have.

If you want to encode a + character in a URL, then you should represent it as %2B.

http://localhost/php_pro_106/activate/Test?JJ=HEY%2BOOO

If you are generating the URL programatically with PHP, you can use the urlencode function.

$keyname = "JJ";
$data = "HEY+OOO";
$url = "http://localhost/php_pro_106/activate/Test?" . urlencode($keyname) . "=" . urlencode($data);
