Expert Developer JavaScript Interview Question:

Define unescape() and escape() functions?

Submitted by: Administrator

The escape () function is responsible for coding a string so as to make the transfer of the information from one computer to the other, across a network.

For Example:

<script>
document.write(escape("Hello? How are you!"));
</script>

Output: Hello%3F%20How%20are%20you%21

The unescape() function is very important as it decodes the coded string.

It works in the following way. For example:

<script>
document.write(unescape("Hello%3F%20How%20are%20you%21"));
</script>

Output: Hello? How are you!
