PHP %20 issue in url and content

I am using a little script, and in the generated content I get a %20 instead of a space.

This is the script I'm using:

index.php 

what is your name?

<FORM METHOD="LINK" ACTION="temp.php?name=">
<input type="text" value="" name="name"  ></input>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" ></input>
</form>

and on temp.php

<?php
$name = rawurlencode( $_GET['name'] );
echo "<h1>" . $name . "</h1>";
?>

Hello <?php print $name ?> how are you?

If I input Mr Example, it renders as Mr%20Example. It does the same for the url temp.php?name=Mr%20Example

the %20 comes because you have used rawurlencode

$name = rawurlencode( $_GET['name'] );

You have to use rawurldecode , it will replace all this kind of character to original character.

$name = rawurldecode( $_GET['name'] );

use this instead

<?php
$name =     urldecode($_GET['name'])
echo "<h1>" . $name . "</h1>";
?>
