URL Decode

Demonstrates how to URL decode a string. PHP Extension

<?php

include("chilkat.php");

$success = false;

// Note: We'll want to tell Chilkat that we're passing in utf-8 strings, and we wish to receive utf-8 "const char *" strings.
// See Global utf-8
$glob = new CkGlobal();
$glob->put_DefaultUtf8(true);

$sb = new CkStringBuilder();

// Here we wish to URL decode the following string:
$success = $sb->Append('%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A6%D7%A81.jpg');

// Notice the above string contains Hebrew chars using the utf-8 byte representation.
// See https://www.loc.gov/marc/specifications/codetables/BasicHebrew.html
// For example:  D79E is the HEBREW LETTER MEM

// Therefore, when we decode to binary bytes, we must interpret the bytes as utf-8
// to get characters.

// Tell Chilkat to URL decode like this:
$success = $sb->Decode('url','utf-8');

// sb now contains the decoded string.
print $sb->getAsString() . "\n";
