I’m newish to perl, and writing a small script that pull links from a page using LWP, the results are decoded into this format:
http://www.perlmonks.org/%3fnode_id%3d376075
rather than:
http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=376075
I’m not familiar with that syntax… what is it called? is there an easy way to translate it back?
That is URL Encoding in action.
There are several perl libraries to help decode and vice versa. Here is one that popped up in a quick search: http://www.perlhowto.com/encode_and_decode_url_strings
