I am having difficulties with the "+" (plus sign) in my URL variables. These are page titles that can sometimes contain various characters. I do have the URLENCODED in there...

<a href="page.cfm?page=#URLEncodedFormat(rstitle.pagetitle)#">.....

and using the.... value="#URLDecode(URL.page)#" on the recieving pages querry...

How can I get around the issue of the user using a plus sign in ther page title?

I am guessing its pretty easy...but I havent been able to find anything on it yet

Thanks

    I discovered the issue... it was the use of the URLdecode that was causing the error. Once that was removed it worked perfectly.

    You could always use Replace("+","","all") to remove the plus sign.  Or replace it with the ASCII equivalent.
