New Comment:
So you are saying that this problem is definitely in Apache, not in
PHP?
You are saying that Apache converts plus signs into spaces?
Please confirm this, it is hard to believe.

PHP receives POST/GET data from Apache in decoded form, so if
Javascript doesn't encode "+" sign, we can't fix it or even change it
in anyway.

Oops, I should have said that escape('+ ') gives '+%20'.
On the PHP side, the "+" is considered an alias for " ", so the script
sees " " (urldecode converts "+" into " " and "%20" into " ").
I stand by the wording in the feature request.

The JavaScript escape function does not do what the urlencode function
does.
If it did, then escape on the JavaScript side would match urldecode on
the PHP side, and this problem would not exist.
If you apply escape to "+ ", you get "+ ". On the PHP side, PHP
automatically applies urldecode, and you get " ".
So, the problem is that plus sign does not get through to the PHP
script.
Is that clear now?

Javascript has escape() method exactly for that.

JavaScript does not support urlencode.
Perhaps if you read the bug report again?
