Example: use URI::Escape; my $uri_string = "http%3a%2f%2fdba%2eadtech%2ede%2fr30%2fdem_r%2easp%3fG%3d167F0G0G22G160G24G4"; my $plain_string = uri_unescape($uri_string); Works a treat. ________________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned for all viruses by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
