URL path and query encoding/decoding problems #13815
Description
SPACE is never encoded as '+' in a URL. '+' means '+'.
But the $http service incorrectly encodes SPACE as + in the URL query, instead of %20. For example:
$http.get('/someUrl', {params: {x: 'foo bar'}})....
Only in the BODY of a POST with content-type of "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" is SPACE encoded as '+'.
Similarly, the $location service will mangle addresses after the page loads, rewriting:
/my/page?app=Google+ to /my/page?app=Google%20
(when using html5 mode)
