encodeForURL doesn't URL encode certain special characters #13

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  encodeForURL doesn't URL encode certain special characters such as * @ - _ 
+ . /

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The above characters should be URL encoded.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest version on Linux.

Please provide any additional information below.

Looks like in DefaultEncoder.js, the encodeForURL/decodeForURL it is calling 
escape()/unescape().  It should probably call 
encodeURIComponent()/decodeURIComponent() instead.
