Why do URLs need to be encoded?
URLs can only contain a limited set of ASCII characters. Special characters like spaces, &, =, and # have specific meanings in URLs. Encoding converts these to percent-encoded format (%20 for space).
What is the difference between encodeURI and encodeURIComponent?
encodeURI() encodes a full URL but preserves URL-meaningful characters. encodeURIComponent() encodes everything except letters, digits, and - _ . ~. Use encodeURIComponent() for query parameters.
