Why URL Encoding is important?

HTTP GET request often contains parameters. However, the potential unsafe ASCII within parameters can mess up the server. To address this problem, browser will automatically replace unsafe ASCII characters with % followed by 2 numbers. For example '&' will be replaced by '%26' and space will be replaced by '%20'.

Example: Url can contains various of parameters, sometime url contain another url as a parameter. For example:

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://wordpress.org

In this case, web server will be confused, so the browser encode all the parameters to:

https://www.google.com/url?sa%3Dt%26source%3Dweb%26rct%3Dj%26url%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org
