Summary

Function: string llUnescapeURL( string url );

0.0	Forced Delay
10.0	Energy

Returns a string that is an unescaped/unencoded version of url, replacing %20 with spaces etc.

• string

url

Caveats

• The hexadecimal encoded representation of UTF-8 byte encoding is the only supported means of access to non ASCII7 characters (Unicode characters).
  • Decoding of Unicode as %u#### is not supported.
• The + character is not decoded as a space.

Examples

<lsl> string str = "http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL Portal";

default {

   state_entry()
   {
       llOwnerSay("Plain string:\n\t" + str);
       // output: "http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL Portal"

       llOwnerSay("Escaped string:\n\t" + llEscapeURL(str));
       // output: "http%3A%2F%2Fwiki%2Esecondlife%2Ecom%2Fwiki%2FLSL%20Portal"

       llOwnerSay("Escaped string unescaped again:\n\t" + llUnescapeURL( llEscapeURL(str) ));
       // output: "http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL Portal"

       // because escaping and unescaping are exact opposite
       // and unescaping an escaped string returns the original

       //  For readability's sake it would make more sense to do:
       llOwnerSay("For readability's sake:\n\t" + "http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/" + llEscapeURL("LSL Portal"));
       // output: "http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL%20Portal"
   }

}
