Using *escape and unescape* does not cause the above issues and Mozilla Developer Network Publication[1] still encourage to use *escape and unescape *alone with the *encodeURIComponent and decodeURIComponent. * Recommended Approach is given below. function utf8_to_b64(str) { return window.btoa(escape(encodeURIComponent(str)));} function b64_to_utf8(str) { return decodeURIComponent(unescape(window.atob(str)));} If we replace *escape and unescape with **encodeURIComponent and decodeURIComponent *the functions seems recursive as given below. function utf8_to_b64(str) { return window.btoa(encodeURIComponent(encodeURIComponent(str))); } function b64_to_utf8(str) { return decodeURIComponent(decodeURIComponent(window.atob(str))); } Which is the most appropriate way of utilising the above function?
