History for this tool
The most recent data you entered in this tool, stored only in this browser.
Save what you type here, in this browser? Your work would go into this browser's local storage, so a refresh or a trip to another tool does not wipe it. You also get a short list of previous entries under the form, each one restorable with a click. Nothing is ever uploaded, and there is no account.
Being straight about the trade-off: anything kept there can be read by anyone who can use this browser profile, and by any script that later runs on this site. A tool page can hold a private key, a password or a signed token. Saving is convenient; it is not private.

About this tool
Percent-encode and decode URL components, either the whole string or one component at a time. The distinction matters more than it looks: encoding a full URL turns its own ? and & into data, which is usually not what you want.Questions
- Should I encode the whole URL or just a parameter?
- Usually only the parameter value. This tool encodes its entire input as one component; it has no separate whole-URL mode. To build a URL, encode a value first, then add it after the parameter name.
