I have a VB6 application that is creating a JSON string and posting it to a website (PHP5). It may look like this:
data=thisisthejsonstringitcontainsthe£hmtlcharacter&code=123&api_key=321
This is an issue because the £ is thought to be the start of a new variable so the json string is being cut.
Does this need to be encoded somehow at the VB source? Or can I do something with this when it arrives at the website? If it needs encoded by VB can anyone suggest a suitable function?
I'm using the application/x-www-form-urlencoded
content type when posting.
