1 Long: data-urlencode 2 Arg: <data> 3 Help: HTTP POST data url encoded 4 Protocols: HTTP 5 See-also: data data-raw 6 Added: 7.18.0 7 --- 8 This posts data, similar to the other --data options with the exception 9 that this performs URL-encoding. 10 11 To be CGI-compliant, the <data> part should begin with a \fIname\fP followed 12 by a separator and a content specification. The <data> part can be passed to 13 curl using one of the following syntaxes: 14 .RS 15 .IP "content" 16 This will make curl URL-encode the content and pass that on. Just be careful 17 so that the content doesn't contain any = or @ symbols, as that will then make 18 the syntax match one of the other cases below! 19 .IP "=content" 20 This will make curl URL-encode the content and pass that on. The preceding = 21 symbol is not included in the data. 22 .IP "name=content" 23 This will make curl URL-encode the content part and pass that on. Note that 24 the name part is expected to be URL-encoded already. 25 .IP "@filename" 26 This will make curl load data from the given file (including any newlines), 27 URL-encode that data and pass it on in the POST. 28 .IP "name@filename" 29 This will make curl load data from the given file (including any newlines), 30 URL-encode that data and pass it on in the POST. The name part gets an equal 31 sign appended, resulting in \fIname=urlencoded-file-content\fP. Note that the 32 name is expected to be URL-encoded already. 33 .RE 34
