Wrap values (or everything) with special characters into encodeURI() function: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_encodeuri.asp

To decode in JS use: decodeURI() function: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_decodeuri.asp

To decode in PHP use rawurldecode() function: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rawurldecode.php
