Pass a percent (%) sign in a url and get exact value of it using php

Answer:

To send a % sign in a url, instead send %25.

In your case, in order for php to see a percent sign, you must pass the character string %25B6011000995504101^SB to the server.

Why:

In URLs, the percent sign has special meaning. Is used to encode special characters. For example, & is the separator between parameters, so if you want your parameter to actually contain an &, you instead write %26. Because the percent sign is used to encode special characters, it is also a special character, and so if you want to actually send a percent sign, it must also be encoded. The encoding for a percent sign is %25.

Try this:

$str = 'http://www.example.com/some_folder/some file [that] needs "to" be (encoded).zip';
$pos = strrpos($str, '/') + 1;
$result = substr($str, 0, $pos) . urlencode(substr($str, $pos));

You're looking for the last occurrence of the slash sign. The part before it is ok so just copy that. And urlencode the rest.

Check this:

getProvisionalTotalRoomsCount($currentRoom, $arrayOfRooms){
  foreach($arrayOfRooms as $key=>$value){
     if($value['provisionalBookingRoomID'] == $currentRoom){
            return $value['totalSpecificRoomCount'];
     }
  }
}
