I have a ajax call with content type: xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
Now I have a data like: "firstName=bob+builder";
When the data is sent to the server the browser replaces the + sign with space and the data goes as firstName: bob builder
Is there a way to escape that + sign? as far as I know there is no way except that it should be handled on the server side, replacing space with + sign. Am I wrong?
