HTTP - URL Encoding

HTTP URLs can only use ASCII characters. Non-ASCII characters must be replaced with % followed by the character's hexadecimal code. The document provides a table matching ASCII codes and symbols to their URL encoded replacements to allow passing URLs to servers safely.

HTTP URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character-set, which often
contain characters outside the ASCII set. So these unsafe characters must be replaced
with a % followed by two hexadecimal digits.

The following table shows the ASCII symbols of the characters and their replacements
which can be used in the URL before passing it to the server:
