Jason, thank you for reply. I tried switching the 1st 2 parameters in the str_replace function so that it now looks like this: $AddressLine1 = urlencode($AddressLine1); $AddressLine1 = str_replace("+", " ", $AddressLine1); Unfortunately as I am now replacing the + symbols with a space " " only the part up to the first space is displayed back to the user. Any ideas?
