On a page, I have an HTML form with a <select> tag. This is dynamically filled with php... using content with spaces.
<select text="52 state street" value="53 state street">
On another page, I create the links to it.
<a href="example.com/page/?var=53%20state%20street">
Is there something I can replace the %20's with that will fix this issue?
Note Using WordPress and a plugin called "gravity forms". ?var dynamically selects an option through the plugin I am using in WordPress. I don't think my issue is with WordPress or the plugin, but rather a lack of php knowledge. I don't have access to the html form code aside from filling it with variables (it is called in via shortcode).
You can try the urldecode function. http://php.net/manual/en/function.urldecode.php
you can also use trim function like this
<?php $str = "Hello World!"; echo $str . "<br>"; echo trim($str," "); ?>
Output like this HelloWorld
