Antonyms for URL unencoding

Definition of URL unencoding:

URL unencoding, also known as URL decoding, is the computational process of converting URL-encoded characters back into their original form. When data is transmitted as part of a URL, certain characters that are not permitted or have special meaning (such as spaces, ampersands, or slashes) are replaced with a percent sign (%) followed by two hexadecimal digits. Unencoding reverses this transformation, restoring these percent-encoded sequences to the characters they represent. This operation is essential for web servers and applications to correctly interpret user-submitted data, file paths, and other information contained within a URL, ensuring that the received data is accurate and usable.
