  • 0

I am working with Zend Framework. I have a form with some fields, all of them type="text", including an input called “Telephone”. When submit, I am using Ajax to send data to Controller. Well here is my problem, if I type a + symbol, for example:
+34-666666666 the data I receive is 34-666666666. The + symbol turns into a whitespace. This problem only happens with +, I have tried with all the symbols and theres no problem. I am going mad and I didn’t found any solution in Google.

    You need to encode your GET/POST data as described here. The JavaScript encodeURIComponent function can be used with a little twist*:

    For application/x-www-form-urlencoded (POST), per specs, spaces are to
    be replaced by ‘+’, so one may wish to follow a encodeURIComponent
    replacement with an additional replacement of “%20” with “+”.

    "&phone=" + encodeURIComponent("+34-666666666").replace(/%20/, "+");      // "&phone=%2B34-666666666"
"&phone=" + encodeURIComponent("+34-666666666 x123").replace(/%20/, "+"); // "&phone=%2B34-666666666+x123"

    *Note: treatment of + character in a URL varies depending on whether it is used inside a path component or query string:

    1. http://example.com/page+1 — file name page+1
    2. http://example.com/page%201 — file name page 1
    3. http://example.com/?file=page+1 — query string parameter file=page 1
    4. http://example.com/?file=page%201 — query string parameter file=page 1
