[pmwiki-devel] Passing information via the URL

I think my last email didn't quite describe the problem that I'm trying to solve - so let me try again. 

I have a pagelist "if" parameter that I want to display on a page, put into URL links, read from URL parameters, and use in pagelists. The parameter value can originate either in the URL or in markup. Unfortunately the encoding for each task differs - e.g. URLs can't have spaces, while pagelist parameters require them.

If there are functions to convert the information from one encoding to another, so I can pass the parameter value around freely, it would greatly simplify my coding. I had hoped that PUE($x) was one such function, but apparently it's not enough by itself. Are there other functions I can use? If not, is there a set of techniques that others use to do what I'm trying to do?
