Send Facebook image url as parameter

Facebook image url for user profile looks like

https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hprofile-xfa1/v/t1.0-1/c26.26.321.321/s50x50/1004031_160695494109373_202362495_n.jpg?oh=bc24275f3c0b63adcd7f2

I want to send this url in request to server

$FBImageUrl = "https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hprofile-xfa1/v/t1.0-1/c26.26.321.321/s50x50/1004031_160695494109373_202362495_n.jpg?oh=bc24275f3c0b63adcd7f2";
$postString = "http://example.com/script.php?img_url=" . FBImageUrl;

But what will happen if this url have question mark inside?

You can use base64_encode & base64_decode. Also for security reasons image URL wont be visible in the address bar.

$FBImageUrl = "https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hprofile-xfa1/v/t1.0-1/c26.26.321.321/s50x50/1004031_160695494109373_202362495_n.jpg?oh=bc24275f3c0b63adcd7f2";
$base64Url = base64_encode($FBImageUrl);
$postString = "http://example.com/script.php?img_url=" . $base64Url;

Receiver you can decode it

$fbUrl = base64_decode($_GET['img_url']);

use urlencode()

$FBImageUrl = "https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hprofile-xfa1/v/t1.0-1/c26.26.321.321/s50x50/1004031_160695494109373_202362495_n.jpg?oh=bc24275f3c0b63adcd7f2";
$postString = "http://example.com/script.php?img_url=".urlencode($FBImageUrl) ;

In your script.php

$img_url = urldecode($_GET['img_url']);
