URL DecoderSometimes I get emails, even legitimate ones, that have URLs encoded with "%49" entities. In order to allow certain "bad" characters into a URL in a meaningful way, it is possible to encode them. For example, forward slashes, question marks, spaces, ampersands, etc. all have special meaning in a URL and can break it. But if GET data contains one of these characters, you need to be able to push it through a URL. In comes URL encoding and decoding. But you don't have to stop there. You can encode everything in the URL, and your browser will still manage to figure it out. Anyway, this page exists to decode these URLs so you know what you are clicking on before you click on it.
