Description Miroslav Maiksnar 2003-06-23 16:51:07 UTC

Version:           3.1.1 (using KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:     (3.0)
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-custom.1.3

When inserting email link (menu tags->other->email), when I enter subject of email, It doesn't url encode text for example when I enter subject "Do you like M&M's?", resulting link is:
<a href="mailto:someone@somewhere.com?subject=Do you like M&M's?">mail</a>

Subject: Re:  New: When creating mailto: link, it doesnt do url encode of subject

Can you give me the correct encoding, how it should look like. I'm mainly a 
C++ developer, not a HTML one. :-(

ULR encoding algorithm taken from the PHP spurce code

I hope I didn't break any license by attaching source code of this function ;o/

Comment 3 Miroslav Maiksnar 2003-06-24 11:54:32 UTC

URL encoded line should look like this: Do+you+like+M%26M%5C%27s%3F
