Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between encodeURI and encodeURIComponent?
encodeURI preserves reserved characters like : / ? & =. encodeURIComponent escapes them, which is what you want for a single query parameter.
Does this run on the server?
No. It uses the browser native encodeURIComponent / decodeURIComponent.
