javascript escape problem with unicode characters

I use the following jquery code to load some date on a specific event from external file:

$("#container").load("/include/data.php?name=" + escape(name));

if the javascript "name" variable contains unicode characters it sends some encoded symbols to data.php file, something like this: %u10E1

开发者_StackOverflowHow can I deal with this encoded symbols? I need to convert them back to readable one.

When I remove the escape function and leave just "name" variable the code doesn't work any more...

Can anyone please help?

If you want to do this manually, then you should be using encodeURIComponent, not escape (which is deprecated)

The jQuery way, however, would be:

$("#container").load("/include/data.php", { "name": name });

Either way PHP should decode it automatically when it populates $_GET.

This may help you.
