Encode URL with encodeURI

encodeURI() is used to encode URIs to be passed to the browser.

It is designed to work on an entire URI.

encodeURI() does not encode special characters that are part of a URI, such as the colon, forward slash, question mark, and pound sign


var uri = "http://www.java2s.com/illegal value.htm#start";
console.log(encodeURI(uri));

The code above generates the following result.
