URLEncode question

[reelstuff]

I was looking over the dictionary for URLEncode("Test string $$") -- returns "Test+string+%24%24"

This code,

Code: Select all

put the text of fld "myTest" into varEncodemessage
put URLEncode (varEncodemessage) into fld "enc_string"

returns, Testing+out+the+URLEncode+function

looking at the dictionary this would appear to be incorrect, but there is not much in the dictionary, perhaps I should try the user manual?
edit, Opps, the user manual states for more information see the dictionary, LOL,

reelstuff,
Can't see what is in your fld "myTest" but if it's "Testing out the URLEncode function" then the result is correct. Replace all the spaces with "+".

Thanks Simon, when I was reading the documentation, (which is not the most communicative or instructive documentation) I may have to scrap that function and find another one, I did see another approach that might work better but it builds the form call from the http headers to the body which would make sense in creating a LC version of a simple form where the string is url encoded.

Thanks for your reply, )
