replacing %20

[gkeogh]

I have the followng code which reads in variables in the URL and
converts them to javascript vars.

<script language="JavaScript">
if (window.location.search.length>1){
Params = window.location.search.substring(1);
Pairs = Params.split("&");
for (i=0;i<Pairs.length;i++){
theVar = Pairs.split("=");
eval(theVar[0] +'="'+ theVar[1]+'"');
}
}


</script>
when i do a document.write, my vars are writing out, BUT the spaces are

all displayed as
%20 (see below)


%20API/Bulk%20Manufacturing,%20Finished%20Dose


I have tried a few ideas but cant replace the "%20" with a " "


Anyone any suggestions?


Cheers
Gary

Unescape your querystring with the unescape() function before you start
parsing it.

With that said, there are plenty of libraries out there which help
facilitate getting the name/value pairs from the querystring. You
should try to look them up.
