Adobe Flash 10.1 to Finally be "Just Right" for iPhone?
Adobe is working on Flash 10.1, which is a version that's finally supposed to suck less -- battery power and cpu cycles, that is. Meaning, it might just be a contender to finally bring acceptable performance to mobile clients like the iPhone sometime in 2010, even if everyone BUT Apple has signed on at this point.
Back up: since the iPhone debuted with the first mobile web client that actually rendered "just the internet", some users have clamored for Flash. And why now? They were used to that also being on "just the internet". However, the iPhone was still a mobile device and Flash is still notorious for bloat, bugs, and otherwise non-Mobile friendly behavior (and no, we won't mention the increased attack vectors runtimes bring to the table, nor the privacy concerns over Flash-cookies, again, okay?)
Steve Jobs himself famously blamed Adobe for having a desktop version that was too big, and a Lite version that didn't really work, and said Adobe was missing a middle version that would be "just right".
Well, Flash 10.1 might just be that mythical middle-ground, using the GPU to hardware accelerate it's video. About time. Included as well will be multi-touch and gesture support.
This all ties into Adobe's Open Screen project, whose aim it is to make Flash the platform for dynamic web content on mobile, something Adobe really wants and everyone from competing renderers like Microsoft's SilverLight, to truly open web advocates aren't nearly as interested in. Apple, thus far, has been heavily investing in WebKit and technologies like HTML 5, CSS, and JavaScript, which can obviate the need for Flash in many of the place it's (arguably wrongly) being used today. Likewise, H.264 has brought YouTube, Ustream, Stickam, and other video platforms to the iPhone without Flash wrappers, and HTTP Live Streaming will take that further still.
This has no-doubt been noticed by Adobe, and factored into making Flash 10.1 a much better product. Apple, however, is the last major holdout to announce support (or even interest in) Flash 10.1.
There are still some users who are desperate to get Flash on their iPhone (and NO, not just for porn vidz!), and equally vocal users who consider the iPhone a blissful oasis from the fan noise, heat, drain, slowdown, and punching monkey ad-banners Flash has traditionally brought with it. Of course, Flash is a runtime and a development platform -- and Adobe is showing off Flash-developed games -- so one major question will be whether Apple is interested in fragmenting their App Store ecosystem beyond the simple WebApps that currently exist.

This will never happen until Apple can work out a suitable monetisation model for the Flash Player. Perhaps using Air to build Flash into an iPhone native app is a way to go, but I just can't see Flash (perhaps specifically, Flash games) being playable on the iPhone for free when it would clearly circumvent the App Store and Apple's majot cash cow
Interesting since other blogs are reporting that there will be flash for all the other mobile platforms, except the iphone, due to apple's closed OS
i like the point about apple's investment into CSS, javascript, and HTML5. what's the point of "opening" up flash more, when open-standard-based technologies (HTML5, any decent javascript library) can do almost everything flash can.
and it does it without using a closed, proprietary system (despite it's slight "opening" up). and it does it without creating non-degradable, black box web pages.
i hope apple sticks to its guns and stays away from flash.
Flash is not coming to the iPhone unless and until other phones run it, and there is enough flash content usable on phones to make it a selling point. Apple is not anti-flash because of performance or security concerns (though some are certainly legitimate); they are anti-flash because it is a well-understood environment that does not require a Mac purchase for development, with a runtime that does not require people to release through the App Store.
Apple is not about to give up that control, or that not-insignificant 30% cut, unless Flash becomes a killer app that lures a significant number of customers away from the iPhone itself.
hey are anti-flash because it is a well-understood environment that does not require a Mac purchase for development, with a runtime that does not require people to release through the App Store.
I'm not so sure I believe that. If so, they wouldn't be pushing webkit so strongly towards HTML5.
Flash is a huge hog. I've been inconvenienced by its absence maybe 10 times since owning an iPhone, but only in minor ways. I don't miss it and I don't miss all the intrusive advertising pushed into my face.
I think its absence from the iphone is starting to have an effect on web site developers.
You now see very few flash only sites, and most sites that used to be flash only have started to include alternative (and less irritating) forms of advertising.
Apple is pushing WebKit so strongly towards HTML 5 precisely because they want to eliminate dependencies on non-standard runtimes they cannot control. I agree with you that many uses of Flash annoy, and would be doubly annoying on mobile devices. On mobile devices, most users want Flash only to stream video from abc/espn/southpark/pick your niche video site that uses flash. If those sites were to use h264 and , demand for Flash on the iPhone would virtually disappear overnight. Without any customer clamor for Flash, Apple does not even have to address the potentially ugly issue of a separate runtime - they "win" without having to fire a shot, protecting the exclusive runtime without having to get in an ugly fight with Adobe or whatever government entity that might butt in.
Don't get me wrong; I wholly support standards, and while I do not think Apple's motives are pure here, they are still moving in the right direction, so good for them and us.
And I rarely, if ever, get inconvenienced by flash on any platform, because I whitelist sites. Noscript and its ilk work wonders :)
Xtube" here I come!!!
Apple will eventually add flash to the iPhone but sadly I don't think it'll be for several years. All this talk about flash being to bloated is just a smokescreen. The reality is that apple doesn't want us to have flash because it would mean that we could play thousands of free flash games online bypassing the app store. Apple isn't about to let that happen. Instead they add it only after competitors advertise it as a feature and they are forced to add it. It's sad that apple has to be that way but it's nothing new in apple land.
I agree with an above post, I personally only want flash to watch videos. I've lost count of how many times I've wanted to watch a video and couldn't because it wasn't on YouTube. Hell even tons of YouTube videos can't be watched for that matter. In this day and age the ability to watch flash videos is a necessity not a luxury.
I thought the iPhone was cool until I discovered that it's a totalitarian Phone. "Citizen, you will not use Flash on your phone." I bought a different device. Now that Flash 10.1 is coming out, I may have to buy a NEW phone! :) What matters is my freedom to use the technology I want to use, not what Apple thinks I should use.
I wonder if somebody will be able to put adobe 10.1 on a jailbroken iPod/phone but I woulndt kno.....

Totte, thanks for taking time to comment on our entries. I can't figure out what "Luci's swimming pant dress" is though. That comment went over my head. I think there is a joke I'm not getting. Please explain.
When this new site started, BWC ran a small contest initiated by Sedor with the $1 items DAZ released then, and one of the items was the Renaissance Clothings, which Luci turned into a "life vest" in one of her renders
A life vest. That's a good one! Got a link to the render? Sounds hilarious.
Here is the thread (but it's in the PC forum so only logged in PC members can see it I'm afraid): http://www.daz3d.com/forums/viewthread/94/
and a link to Luci's masterpiece: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/viewthread/94/P165/#9440
Thanks! OMG, that is fantastic. What an imagination - and the skill to render it out!!
Some images in the thread look familiar. I must have visited it at the time. Sadly, I have a bad memory - or luckily I can be astounded all over again.

Counting House and Anglesea Arms
Has anyone ever tried a meal at the Counting House pub, 50 Cornhill, City of London? It's in an old remodeled bank building. Also, has anyone tried the food at the Anglesea Arms pub, 15 Selwood Terrace, South Kensington, London? I read about these two in a Seattle Times article by Rick Steves. They both sound pretty good from his description of his pub lunch in one and a dinner in the other. http://seattletimes.com/html/travel/2020740712_rickstevesapril9xml.html?prmid=obinsource The reviews for both on Trip Advisor are good. Thinking of trying both of them on a fall trip to London. I would appreciate comments from anyone who has been to either of these two pubs. Thanks.

b. Novice trail skills, better forest road and street skills on a 450. Never used a roll chart before
Can the 2 above ride together and not clog up the works? Don't want to be the guys everyone remembers :-)
Here is my take.
I am not associated with this ride nor do I know the event organizers, or the terrain. So take this with a grain of salt.
With your experience you should be fine. I'm assuming you will be riding with your son. This will allow you to collaborate on timing and route finding.
I wouldn't think there would be as much "pressure to perform" since this is not part of the NMA Enduro Series. This may be a good way to get a taste of what enduro's are all about. And if you like it, definitely check out Dorian's PSER Beginner Enduro in the Spring! They give a quick PowerPoint presentation on what its all about.
As you may know, in Enduros 2 or 3 riders leave the start line (together) every minute, and the object is to arrive at unknown check points,
on your minute
. If you are early, you have "burned the check" 2 points for the first minute and 5 points for each additional minute early. 1 point for every minute late.
At every enduro I have participated in, they say at the riders meeting that if/when someone comes up behind you, "just let them by, because they have already beat you". (or they are about to burn their next check point
Turns out I like the rain, easier to Spin, Skid and Slide.

Man hurts two
A woman and her baby were hurt when a man sexually assaulted the woman, Wichita County court records show.
Isrrael Steven Arizola, 39, address listed in the 11600 block of McFall in Iowa Park, was charged with aggravated sexual assault in connection with the June 8 incident. His bond was set at $250,000. He was being held Thursday in the Wichita County Jail.
According to an arrest warrant affidavit:
A deputy from the Wichita County Sheriff's Office went to talk to a 28-year-old woman who said she was sexually assaulted by her boyfriend.
She said she was at home with her 1-year-old daughter at about 8 p.m. when Arizola walked into the bedroom and starting yelling for her to get up. She said he pulled her from the bed, and as he was pulling her by her hair, she grabbed the child.
She said he threw her to the floor, and when she tried to get up, he kneed her in the face. She said she started bleeding and was still holding the baby.
When she tried again to get up, Arizola hit her ear with a pistol, she said. She said that made her fall face first to the floor again, this time dropping the baby. She said she was still trying to get up and he was "stomping on her back and head to keep her on the ground," the affidavit stated.
Then, she said, he ripped off the shorts she was wearing and sexually assaulted her. She said she screamed and might have bit his hand. He was yelling at the baby to stop crying, the affidavit stated.
Arizola told the woman "if you call the police, when I get out I will find you, and when I do I will kill you in front of your child so she will know the pain you will feel!," it stated.
The woman said that as she kept struggling, Arizola hit her behind one ear, causing her to pass out.
The deputy noticed the woman had a black eye and a small abrasion. He also noted a red swollen area behind her ear and swelling on her temple. The baby had a knot on her head from when she hit the floor after falling out of her mother's arms.
Sgt. Joe Snyder, public information officer with the Wichita Falls Police Department, said in many family violence cases, the victim is given forms that detail the social agencies that offer protection. Also, they are given forms to file for an emergency protective order, which temporarily prevents contact from the person.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 9/27/12
It was about as ugly as a record-breaking hit can be. David Wright did not become the New York Mets' all-time hits leader with a booming home run or even a line-drive single. Instead, Wright finally passed Ed Kranepool with his 1,419th hit on a bleeder down the third-base line, which Pittsburgh's Pedro Alvarez could not glove in a 6-0 Mets victory. Wright later added a clean single for his 1,420th career hit. "It's remarkable," manager Terry Collins said. "It's a testament to what a really, really good player he is. It's a testament to his work ethic. Even last year, he's never satisfied. All he wants to do is get better." With that, Wright passed Kranepool, whose record stood for 36 years largely on the strength of his longevity. Though the Mets have employed plenty of better hitters over the years than Kranepool, who retired with a .261 batting average, none of them stuck around long enough to make a run at his record. Then along came Wright, a first-round draft pick who g...

Britain's National Health Service is often held up by liberals as the model for how American government health care should be run.
The NHS runs a very effective death panel with the benign name of the Liverpool Care Pathway (LCP).
Patrick Pullicino is a consulting neurologist for East Kent Hospitals and professor of clinical neurosciences at the University of Kent.
In a recent speech to the Royal Society of Medicine in London, Professor Pullicino accused the NHS of killing off 130,000 elderly (LCP) patients every year to free up hospital beds.
The professor detailed how this "care pathway" became euthanasia by government mandate. "Treatment" includes withdrawal of water and nourishment, resulting in death.
He told of an instance when he intervened in the case of a 71-year-old man who was admitted with pneumonia and suffering from epilepsy. He was put on LCP to die by an attending physician applying government rules.
Dr. Pullicino treated the man's seizures, treated the pneumonia, and the now-healthy patient was discharged to his family four weeks later.
It is certain that budget pressures under Obamacare will result in regulations governing end of life care just as has happened in Britain.
Today in our country, medical directives included in an individual's will and trust documents can specify what life-extending measures should be taken, or not taken, under end-of-life circumstances.
This patient-directed approach contrasts with the government-mandate approach written into Obamacare.
Do you want you or the government determining when you die?
The best outcome of the Supreme Court ruling on Obamacare would be to start over with the basic question of what role, if any, government should play in this most personal and private aspect of our lives.

Taste, Experience, and Feeding, Volume 215
Elizabeth D. Capaldi, T. Terry L. Powley
American Psychological Association, 1990 - Psychology - 275 pages
There has been a recent surge of work on taste, experience, and feeding. This development reflects several factors, including behavioral work on taste aversion, which has led to a concern with how positive consequences can affect taste preferences, progress in understanding the physiological basis of taste, as well as a practical concern with human obesity and how it is affected by taste and experiential factors. /// This volume has been divided into six parts, each dealing with a different aspect of taste and feeding. The first part of this volume deals with the current perspective of and approach to feeding used by most researchers. /// Taste perception is the focus of the second part. /// The third part of this volume deals with the genetic and the developmental aspects of taste and feeding. /// Learning and feeding are the concerns of chapters 10, 11, 12, and 13 in part four. /// Part five concerns work done with taste preferences, food consumption, and human obesity. /// Rozin's chapter on social influences and feeding makes up the sixth and final part of this volume.

Europe's Existential Crisis
Walker, Martin, The Wilson Quarterly
After more than 50 years of effort to create a united Europe, the European Union has reached a critical moment. Even as more than a dozen nations clamor for membership, many citizens in the 15 current member-states are growing skeptical of the leaders who have championed the European dream.
Last May, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright handed German foreign minister Joschka Fischer a most confusing diagram. Beneath an array of apparently random scribbles, it depicted a map of Europe that appeared to have been defaced by an unusually energetic infant who had been allowed to run wild with a box of crayons.
After some effort, the eye could discern a number of sharply dissimilar circles drawn upon the map in different hues. There was one circle in blue for the 15 members of the European Union (EU), and another in red for the 19 members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), and another in green for the seven countries jostling to join NATO in its next round of enlargement. The 11 countries that have adopted the new single currency, the euro, were marked in brown. There was another circle, in yellow, for the six countries of central and eastern Europe that are deemed to be on the fast track for early membership in the EU, and another in orange for the six thought to be on a rather slower course toward entry. There was yet another, in a kind of violet, which marked the 12 EU countries that had signed on to the Schengen Accord. Named after a quaint Luxembourg village where one can stand on the bank of a stream and toss pebbles into either France or Germany, the accord eliminates internal border controls. Having entered any one of the 12 states, a visitor can pass without a passport into the rest.
There were even three circles disappearing far off the map in the direction of Siberia and the Chinese border. One was for those 43 countries (including Russia) that make up the Council of Europe, the body that runs the European Court of Human Rights. A second was the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which includes the former Soviet republics among its 55 members. The third was for those 27 countries, including former Soviet states such as Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, linked to NATO through the Partnership for Peace.
"The map showed circles intersecting with circles that intersected with still more circles in a rather bamboozling way," commented Andreas Michelis, a German diplomatic spokesman. "The American question was, where do we turn among all these elements?" The European question -- which confronts the 15 nations of the EU with increasing urgency as 13 countries (Malta having since joined the 12 on the Americans' map) hammer on the door for entry -- is, where does Europe stop?
The Europe of the new millennium was supposed to be a fairly simple place. In the happy rhetoric of President George Bush during the Cold War's endgame, the old continent would at last, after the 20th century's wars and revolutions and genocides and gulags, be "whole and free." Whole, that is, after the geographical divide of the Iron Curtain, and free after the collapse of communism. But this begs a larger question. Is "wholeness" fulfilled by the boundaries of Renaissance Europe, which exclude Russia and half the Balkans? Or is Reformation Europe to be the measure, to include the Roman Catholic and Protestant lands but leave out Orthodox Russia and Serbia? Christian Europe might include Russia but exclude Turkey, Albania, and Bosnia. Europeans have grappled with this conundrum since Charles de Gaulle offered his vision of "Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals." That satisfied few. Europeans shrank from the prospect of including half of Russia. But Russians, even today, hate the concept because it leaves ou t half of their country. Americans have tended to take an expansive view, from former secretary of state James Baker's grandiose conception of a new transatlantic community "from Vancouver to Vladivostok," to President Bill Clinton's latest call for both NATO and the EU to clear the path for eventual Russian and Ukrainian membership. …

Joe Mauer recovering well from offseason knee surgery
Jan 28, 2011, 8:38 PM EDT
During an appearance with the Twins' annual Winter Caravan earlier this week, Joe Mauer told FOX Sports 9 in Minnesota that he "should be OK" for spring training after undergoing minor surgery on his left knee in December. Seemed innocent enough at the time, but that one Tweet was still enough to send some fans…

Today the Rays added another reliever to the mix for their rebuilt bullpen, claimining right-hander Rob Delaney off waivers from the Twins.

The short version: the lawsuit filed against the Wilpons is to "claw back" money that Madoff gave…

Yeah, Yankees President Randy Levine didn't much care for that: "If he really wants to impress us then he can get the Rangers off of…

Earlier this week the Indians were said to be interested in Casey Kotchman, but today the veteran first baseman signed a minor-league contract with the Rays that includes an invitation to spring training.

Jan 28, 2011, 2:16 PM EDT
During a Houston radio interview yesterday Lance Berkman talked about his offseason and explained why he opted to sign with St. Louis instead of Texas (among several other teams).

(±)3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, 'Ecstasy') is a brain serotonergic neurotoxin in experimental animals, including nonhuman primates. It is also an increasingly popular recreational drug of abuse, and doses of MDMA that are used recreationally overlap with those that produce serotonin (5-HT) neurotoxicity in animals. Studies in human MDMA users probing for evidence of brain serotonergic neurotoxicity indicate that some MDMA users may incur MDMA-related 5-HT neural injury and, possibly, functional sequelae. In particular, MDMA users have selective decrements in cerebrospinal fluid 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid and brain 5-HT transporters, similar to nonhuman primates with documented MDMA-induced neurotoxicity. Functional abnormalities seen in MDMA users that may be related to 5- HT injury include cognitive deficits, altered sleep architecture, altered neuroendocrine function, altered behavioral responses to 5-HT selective drugs, and increased impulsivity. Additional studies in animals, as well as longitudinal and epidemiological studies in MDMA users, are required to confirm and extend the present data, and to determine whether MDMA users are at increased risk for developing neuropsychiatric illness as they age.

- The world we knew is gone. The world of commerce and frivolous necessity has been replaced by a world of survival and responsibility. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe, causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months society has crumbled: no government, no grocery stores, no mail delivery, no cable TV. In a world ruled by the dead, the survivors are forced to finally start living. - The series that created the zombie movement reaches its most pivotal, series-altering arc yet! They thought they were safe in the prison. They were wrong. A force far more deadly than the walking dead is at their door and when the dust settles, their rank will be reduced by more than half.

Just as you think you have seen it all, just as you think it can't get any better, just as you think you can't be traumatized any more Kirkman pulls something so dramatic out of the bag you think you are going to faint. This fellow is truly the Yoda of zombie comics - underestimate him at your peril. You really can't second guess this chap as he runs rings around your tiny mind and keeps pulling the rug out from under you. I sincerely hope he has won some serious awards as he truly deserves it.
The art is continuing to quietly experiment and innovate with subtle flairs of brilliance. There is a lot of "artificial focus" in this issue. That is making characters further away paler to give the illusion of depth. I am not entirely convinced this is needed but I applaud the artist for having the courage to try out new techniques and not just rest on his laurels.
Each end of issue cliff hanger gets more impressive and although I say it every time, he can't possibly top this ending, can he? It is my pleasure to finally give this series my highest award, the Double Thumbs Up!
By a Book Depository customer 10 Dec 2008
what's wrong with this comic?I've seen it for sale in other sites but never here!Please do something!

No Knock Raid Results In Officer Being Shot In The Face, 3 Other Officers Shot
As police continue to militarize, it seems that a certain amount of abuses are being exercised regardless of the actual law. A few police officers got a startling dose of reality after performing a no-knock raid where one officer was shot in the face and killed upon entrance and three other officers were shot as well.
No knock raids are usually meant for the most violent offenders in hopes that the element of surprise will result in minimized risk. Obviously when trying to arrest 49-year-old Marvin Louis Guy, this was the best possible approach, but officers have been reported to be using the frightful tactics at an unprecedented rate.
As many see it, no knock raids are a form of home invasion as those being bombarded upon haven't been given a warrant or explanation of why people are kicking in their doors. Furthermore, some counties have even ruled that if police officers are shot during a no-knock raid, those doing the shooting will not be held responsible in a court of law.
Killeen Police Detective Charles "Chuck" Dinwiddie died shortly after sustaining a gunshot wound to the face during the dangerous raid. Apparently Guy was able to also hit three other officers – two of which were treated and released while the third remains in stable condition in the hospital.
Things aren't looking so good for Guy though as he currently sits in prison looking at three counts of capital murder in relation to the shooting. If someone is kicking down your door, do you have the responsibility to assess the situation and make sure they're not police officers before pulling the trigger yourself? Could that hesitation kill you if the circumstance is right?
No Knock Raid Results In Officer Being Shot In The Face, 3 Other Officers Shot // Mr. Conservative
Black Blade: No doubt that there will be casualties on all sides. I said it before and I will say it again - there will be casualties on all sides. They declared war on Americans so those are just the risks taken when engaged in "no knock" home invasions. No telling who is smashing down your door and any hesitation to react could get you killed. Just think of how many will die when they come to terrorize families and sieze gunowners firearms. Gonna get mighty ugly.

great game :D
Rated 3 / 5 stars
The game seems like it would be interesting. However, the advertisement pops up on the screen and everything else turns black. After the advertisement is done playing the screen is still black and there is no way to start the game. If this could somehow be fixed that would be great.
Rated 5 / 5 stars

Put 10 or so Iowans in a room to talk about the bioeconomy and what do you get? Thoughtful and thought provoking dialogue about the opportunities and challenges associated with food security, feed production, fuel prices and growth in the renewable fuels industry. That's what happened around the state in November and early December as Iowans came together for ISU Extension's Bioeconomy Community Conversations II: Food, Feed and Fuel.
For example, in Logan the group started talking at 7 p.m., expecting to finish in 90 minutes, said Clint McDonald, ISU Extension education director for Harrison County. "At 8:30 we had only covered two topics and I started to close things down, but the group wanted to stay. We ended the formal part of the meeting around 9:30, but they were still here at 10 p.m. talking among themselves."
The Harrison County group thought the bioeconomy was healthy for Iowa, McDonald said. "They believe that we need to get the word out about the renewable aspects of biofuels, and that we can have it all -- food, feed and fuel -- without increased food prices for consumers."
In Ida County much of the discussion focused on the factors influencing food costs and the effects of those costs on families, said ISU Extension director Kathy Schmidt. The discussion also touched on energy costs facing low-income families, who likely are dealing with older, less energy efficient homes and less fuel-efficient vehicles.
Winnebago and Hancock County residents met together, said Jim Hill, ISU Extension education director for Hancock County. They thought ISU Extension should continue to educate consumers on making healthy food choices and supporting locally grown foods. They also saw the need for education on conservation — from driving less to recycling waste and consuming less-processed foods.
As of mid-December, 91 counties reported that more than 700 Iowans participated in the conversations, said Corry Bregendahl, an assistant scientist with the North Central Regional Center for Rural Development at ISU. She will be analyzing the data from all the conversations to determine the prominent issues.
"The analysis will help us see the bigger picture with more clarity so we can better understand the breadth and depth of the concerns, hopes and expectations citizens have about the bioeconomy and its impact on Iowa's food, families and agriculture," Bregendahl said.

Every time you find humor in a difficult situation, you win....
I could be a sweet, flirty, witty girl, but when I see what I perceive to be injustices, watch out! I believe in keeping it honest and I believe in karma. I'm very intuitive and perceptive. If I feel you are not honest or trustworthy, you're screwed, 'cause I lose total respect and there's no getting me back. So.... Keep it simple, keep it honest, use humor-a lot (being funny is most important!), and find the good in every day life! Be happy ;-)

Encodes a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) component by replacing each instance of certain characters by one, two, three, or four escape sequences representing the UTF-8 encoding of the character (will only be four escape sequences for characters composed of two "surrogate" characters).
|Core Global Method
|Implemented in
|JavaScript ?
|ECMAScript Edition
|ECMAScript 3rd Edition
var encoded = encodeURIComponent(str);
- A component of a URI.
encodeURIComponent escapes all characters except the following: alphabetic, decimal digits,
- _ . ! ~ * ' ( )
Note that an error will be thrown if one attempts to encode a surrogate which is not part of a high-low pair, e.g.,
alert(encodeURIComponent('\uD800\uDFFF')); // high-low pair ok alert(encodeURIComponent('\uD800')); // lone high surrogate throws "URIError: malformed URI sequence" alert(encodeURIComponent('\uDFFF')); // lone low surrogate throws "URIError: malformed URI sequence"
To avoid unexpected requests to the server, you should call
encodeURIComponent on any user-entered parameters that will be passed as part of a URI. For example, a user could type "
Thyme &time=again" for a variable
comment. Not using
encodeURIComponent on this variable will give
comment=Thyme%20&time=again. Note that the ampersand and the equal sign mark a new key and value pair. So instead of having a POST
comment key equal to "
Thyme &time=again", you have two POST keys, one equal to "
Thyme " and another (
time) equal to
application/x-www-form-urlencoded (POST), per http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interac...m-content-type, spaces are to be replaced by '+', so one may wish to follow a
encodeURIComponent replacement with an additional replacement of "%20" with "+".
If one wishes to be more stringent in adhering to RFC 3986 (which reserves !, ', (, ), and *), even though these characters have no formalized URI delimiting uses, the following can be safely used:
function fixedEncodeURIComponent (str) { return encodeURIComponent(str).replace(/[!'()]/g, escape).replace(/\*/g, "%2A"); }
