Passing e-mail address through URL?

[influx]

Hi all,

Quick question, easy too.

If I am passing an e-mail address through a URL, what must I be careful for?

I obviously cannot pass the e-mail address as is through the URL (i.e: www.website.com/test.php?em=[e-mail]) as is, I need to use str_replace to replace the @ with %40 (i think?).

Something like:

<a href="test.php?em=<?php echo str_replace("@", "%40", $email);?>">TEST ME!</a>

Is this all I need to worry about?

thanks.
