Hi - What Al said, but you want to use the url_encode/url_decode
functions in php
you don't need to use url_decode() because php will do that automatically
for incoming data - the caveat being situations where double urlencoding is
being used (anyone playing with multiple redirection and such will feel what
I mean), that is not the situation here
e.g.:
echo '<a href="browse.php?DarScientificName=', urlencode("Argononemertes australiensis"), '">...</a>';
I think actually the whole url should be urlencoded as a matter of course, not
100% sure about this (and it's way to early on a monday to bother checking up ;-) ...
maybe someone else can chime in?

Hello,
One of the values I'm passing in a URL string contains multiple spaces.
<a href="browse.php?DarScientificName=Argononemertes
australiensis">...</a>
(The multiple spaces are between Argononemertes and australiensis)
However when I retrieve the value using $_GET[DarScientificName]
there is only a single space between the two names which I understand
is the intended behaviour?
Is there a way to preserve the multiple spaces?
Thanks
Craig.
