- URL Decode: Converts %-encoded sequences back to original characters
- URL Component Encode: For encoding URL components (encodes more characters)
- URL Component Decode: Decodes component-encoded strings
Usage Examples:
- Preparing strings for URL parameters
- Debugging encoded URLs
- Processing web form data
- Working with API endpoints
| Input | Operation | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Hello World! | URL Encode | Hello%20World%21 |
| name=John Doe | URL Component Encode | name%3DJohn%20Doe |
| Hello%20World%21 | URL Decode | Hello World! |
Note: Standard URL encoding preserves some special characters that are allowed in URLs, while component encoding encodes them.
