Re: Passing an email address as param with a plus(+) sign

No, that still didn't get it. If I urlencode the string and pass it as
a param /users/confirm/foo%2Bbar%40example.com

then in users_controller.php

function confirm($email){
$email = urldecode($email);
$this->set('email',$email);
}

confirm.ctp

<?php echo $email ?>

still outputs

foo bar@example.com

In fact if I leave out the $email = urldecode($email) altogether
confirm.ctp still outputs foo bar@example.com.
