     "#"     encodes to     "%23"        
     "&"     encodes to     "%26"        
     "="     encodes to     "%3D"        
     "+"     encodes to     "%2B"        
     "$"     encodes to     "%24"        
     ","     encodes to     "%2C"        
     "%"     encodes to     "%25"        
     "<"     encodes to     "%3C"        
     ">"     encodes to     "%3E"        
     "~"     encodes to     "%7E"        
     "%"     encodes to     "%25"        
   Note that because the <space> character is very commonly used, a special code ( the "+" sign) 
   has been reserved as its URL encoding.  
   Thus the string "A B" can be URL encoded as either "A%20B" or "A+B".
