What is URL Encoding and Decoding?

URL encoding, also known as percent-encoding, is a mechanism for encoding information in a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). Characters that are not allowed in a URL must be encoded into a format that can be transmitted safely over the internet. Decoding is the inverse process.
