sending comma in url

[akravets]

Hello,

I have a page that has a drop down menu, when item is selected the request is send to info.php?item=selectedIndex. Everything works, however when I have selected value with a comma: "Comany, Inc" the url redirection does not work. Is there a function in php I should use to encode url, or commas are not allowed at all?

thanks,
Alex

[man]urlencode[/man] will encode it properly so it doesnt affect the query string.
