Is there a function for URL encoding a value ? Here's what I mean :
select x from y returns 'word1 word2 %word3' If I were to put this into a URL, some browsers will not handle the URL correctly, especially at the space character, also the same happens with some proxy servers (like squid at least 2.3) I would like to do the following : select URL(x) from y and see the result : 'word1%20word2%20%27word3' which I can safely put into a link and will be handled correctly by all browsers and proxies. I would like it to be a SQL server function because I use a very generic CGI script for which the queries are completely controled by form parameters. I cannot URL encode all returned values, also I can't select a certain field and encde it without losing much of the generic characteristic of the script. ===== ing. Andrei Boros Centrul pt.
