When to Use Each Mode

  • URL Component — encodes every special character including ? and &. Use this for a single query parameter value.
  • Full URL — preserves structural characters like :// and ?. Use this to encode an entire URL.

Common Use Cases

Encoding user input before inserting it into URLs prevents broken links, injection attacks, and "malformed URI" errors. Search engines, redirect URLs, and tracking parameters all benefit from proper encoding.
