Decode Web Text

Thu, 24 Oct 2024 18:07:03 +0000

This activity provides methods for decoding URLs when processing Web requests.

Supported Encoders:#

Encoder	Description
Url Decoder	Converts a string that has been encoded for transmission in a URL into a decoded string. If characters such as blanks and punctuation are passed in an HTTP stream, they might be misinterpreted at the receiving end. URL encoding converts characters that are not allowed in a URL into character- entity equivalents; URL decoding reverses the encoding. For example, when embedded in a block of text to be transmitted in a URL, the characters < and> are encoded as %3c and %3e.
Html Decoder	Converts a string that has been HTML-encoded for HTTP transmission into adecoded string. If characters such as blanks and punctuation are passed in

an HTTP stream, they might be misinterpreted at the receiving end. HTML encoding converts characters that are not allowed in HTML into character- entity equivalents; HTML decoding reverses the encoding. For example, when embedded in a block of text, the characters < and > are encoded as < and > for HTTP transmission.

Encode Web Text

Thu, 24 Oct 2024 18:06:57 +0000

This activity provides methods for encoding URLs when processing Web requests.

Supported Encoders:#

Encoder	Description
Url Encoder	Encodes a URL string. If characters such as blanks and punctuation are passed in an HTTP stream, they might be misinterpreted at the receiving end. URL encoding converts characters that are not allowed in a URL into character-entity equivalents; URL decoding reverses the encoding. For example, when embedded in a block of text to be transmitted in a URL, thecharacters < and > are encoded as %3c and %3e.
Url Path Encoder	Encodes the path portion of a URL string for reliable HTTP transmission from the Web server to a client. URL encoding ensures that all browsers will correctly transmit text in URL strings. Characters such as ?, &, /, and spaces may be truncated or corrupted by some browsers so those characters must be encoded in <A> tags or in query strings where the strings may be re-sentby a browser in a request string.
Html Encoder	Converts a string to an HTML-encoded string. If characters such as blanks and punctuation are passed in an HTTP stream, they might be misinterpreted at the receiving end. HTML encoding converts charactersthat are not allowed in HTML into character-entity equivalents; HTML

	decoding reverses the encoding. For example, when embedded in a block of text, the characters < and > are encoded as < and > for HTTPtransmission.
Html Attribute Encoder	Minimally converts a string into an HTML-encoded string. method convertsonly quotation marks ("), ampersands (&), and left angle brackets (<) to equivalent character entities.

**Note:**You can encode a URL using with the Url Encoderor the Url Path Encoder. However, the methods return different results. The Url Encoderconverts each space character to a plus character (+). The Url Path Encoderconverts each space character into the string “%20”, which represents a space in hexadecimal notation. Use the Url Path Encoder method when you encode the path portion of a URL in order to guarantee a consistent decoded URL, regardless of which platform or browser performs the decoding.
