I was in need of some URLs with the special characters (like space, & etc) escaped. They contain parameters that are being read from a database which are text search strings.
It turns out that the escape() function in CGI.pm will do what is needed - but it's not a standard function that is available when you just use CGI. You have to
use CGI qw/escape /;
to make the function available.
