@ -49,6 +49,8 @@ Below is a chart of special characters and the value you should set them:
| ----------- | -------- | -----------
| **%** | **%25** | The percent sign itself is the starting value for defining the %XX character sets.
| **&** | **%26** | The ampersand sign is how a URL knows to stop reading the current variable and move onto the next. If this existed within a password or username, it would only read 'up' to this character. You'll need to escape it if you make use of it.
| **#** | **%23** | The hash tag and/or pound symbol as it's sometime referred to as can be used in URLs as anchors.
| **?** | **%3F** | The question mark divides a url path from the arguments you pass into it. You should ideally escape this if this resides in your password or is intended to be one of the variables you pass into your url string.
| _(a space)_ | **%20** | While most URLs will work with the space, it's a good idea to escape it so that it can be clearly read from the URL.
| **/** | **%2F** | The slash is the most commonly used delimiter that exists in a URL and helps define a path and/or location.
| **@** | **%40** | The at symbol is what divides the user and/or password from hostname in a URL. if your username and/or password contains an '@' symbol, it can cause the url parser to get confused.
