Question

Try it out:

encodeURIComponent(\"\'@#$%^&\");

If you try this out you will see all the special characters are encoded except for the single

Answer 1

I found a neat trick that never misses any characters. I tell it to replace everything except for nothing. I do it like this (URL encoding):

function encode(w){return w.replace(/[^]/g,function(w){return '%'+w.charCodeAt(0).toString(16)})}

function encode(w){return w.replace(/[^]/g,function(w){return '%'+w.charCodeAt(0).toString(16)})}

loader.value = encode(document.body.innerHTML);
