Understanding URL Encoding
encodeURIComponent
Use this for encoding individual URL components like query parameters, form data, or any part of a URL that might contain special characters.
encodeURI
Use this for encoding complete URLs. It preserves URL structure characters but encodes spaces and other special characters.
Pro Tip
When building URLs programmatically, use encodeURIComponent for individual parameter values, then concatenate them with & characters. Don't use encodeURI on the entire URL as it will preserve characters that might need encoding in specific contexts.
Your Privacy is Protected
This tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript's built-in encoding functions. Your URLs are never uploaded to our servers or any third-party service. All processing happens locally on your device.
