NAME

URI::Escape::JavaScript - A perl implementation of JavaScript's escape() and unescape() functions

SYNOPSIS

use URI::Escape::JavaScript qw(escape unescape);

$string  = "\x{3084}\x{306f}\x{308a}\x{539f}\x{56e0}\x{306f} Yapp(ry";
$escaped = escape($string);

$escaped = '%u30B5%u30D6%u30C6%u30AF%u5165%u308A%u305F%u3044%uFF01%uFF01';
$string  = unescape($escaped);

DESCRIPTION

URI::Escape::JavaScript provides JavaScript's escape() and unescape() functions. It works simplar to homonymous functions of JavaScript. URI::Escape doesn't work for escaping and unescaping JavaScript like Unicode URI-escape ("%uXXXX"). But you can use this module to do those.

FUNCTIONS

escape()

escape() works to escaping a string to JavaScript's URI-escaped string. The argument of this function must be a flagged UTF-8 string (a.k.a. Perl's internal form). This function is exportable (but will not be exported by default). use it with arguments of function names if you want.

unescape()

unescape() works to unescaping JavaScript's URI-escaped string to original string. It will return a flagged UTF-8 string (a.k.a. Perl's internal form). This function is also esportable (but will not be exported by default). use it with arguments of function names if you want.
