unescape_URI
Type

function (URI: string) : string

Unescapes all characters in a URI (decode every %xx group).

Parameters

URI – The URI to unescape.

Returns

The unescaped URI with all %xx groups decoded.

Note

Unescaping reserved characters may cause loss of information. RFC 2396: A URI is always in an “escaped” form, since escaping or unescaping a completed URI might change its semantics. Normally, the only time escape encodings can safely be made is when the URI is being created from its component parts.
