well then you have to work on client side...doing urlenconde after receive parameters is useless. So i guess your client (end user) is not using a html form but sending parameters via HTTP GET as you said..
if you were using a html form you won't have this problem... so if you want to pass the parameters via HTTP GET then you client (end user or whatever) should do a little work like replace % by %25 so i you want to send 'script.php?text=%0A%01%00%B1%B2' what you should send in order to work properly 'script.php?text= %250A%2501%2500%25B1%25B2' Note that all % were changed by %25. I tested it and it worked.
