Summary
Function: string llEscapeURL( string url );| 0.0 | Forced Delay |
| 10.0 | Energy |
Returns a string that is the escaped/encoded version of url, replacing spaces with %20 etc. The function will escape any character not in {a-z, A-Z, 0-9} to %xx where "xx" is the hexadecimal value of the character in UTF-8 byte form.
| • string | url |
To clarify, numbers and ASCII7 alphabetical characters are NOT escaped. If a character requires more then one byte in UTF-8 byte form then it returns multiple %xx sequences chained together.
| This function is similar to functions () found in many other languages: | ||

Caveats
- The function is not appropriate for escaping a URL all at once, because the ':' after the protocol, and all of the '/' characters delimiting the various parts, will be escaped. Instead, build the URL in parts; escaping parts of the path and query string arguments as needed.
Examples
<lsl> // Provides a clickable link to the LSL Portal by escaping the space in the title // "LSL Portal" here becomes "LSL%20Portal"
string title = "LSL Portal";
default {
state_entry()
{
llOwnerSay("http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/" + llEscapeURL(title));
}
}
