# in GET

[Haleden]

There is a problem when trying to use # in a form that uses method=GET. As you may know, the # symbol is used to "jump" to certain parts of a page. For example: blah.htm#step2. Say you want to do something like this: profile.php?name=l#s3r. It won't work because the # is interpereted as a "jumper." Is there any way to solve this?

Have a look at the functions urlendcode() and urldecode() . They are used to replace special characters to be used via GET
