%2520 with URL encoding

[A Gloom]

How do I get TW to URL encode spaces with %2520 (instead of %20)?  %2520 is what Github encodes blank spaces in the official TW static pages' URL's.

Hi Gloom

The URLs are double encoded. The first encoding is so that we can map every tiddler title to a valid URL, and the second is done by the browser.

Best wishes

Hello Jeremy,

TY for the quick reply

The searching I did said it was that (double encoding of %20) but made it sound like it was an error, but here it's intentional I take it.

It's done with these if i'm understanding correctly

tv-filter-export-link, tv-wikilink-template, tv-get-export-link

but they can't be used in a browser it says, only for export.

What I'm attempting to do is double encode a selection that is to be used in a macro to generate a <a href> link for TW static pages-- see the Table of Contents select menu in the TWcom static page viewer attachment.

A similiar item i'm grappling with is writing a uri encoding to a temp file-- I got the view macro to single encode and display, but can't get it write the encoded result -- still shifting through documentation-- there's so many widgets and code i'm still not familiar with.  See attached URL encode/decode utility.
