Transmitting newline character "\n"

Given the following URL (working, try it!)

https://select-test.wp3.rbsworldpay.com/wcc/purchase?instId=151711&cartId=28524&currency=GBP&amount=1401.49&testMode=100&name=Tom%20Gul&address=24%20House%20Road\nSome Place\nCounty&postcode=TR33%20999&[email protected]&country=GB

If you click on the link and go through to the payment page, the address in the address box is not displaying properly, the newline characters are displaying as text.

I've tried passing through <br />'s but no luck, anyone got any ideas? I need to get the address to display with newlines.

Commas are OK as a separator but i would much prefer being able to have newlines. Thanks for any help! A working example will be the accepted answer.


Try using %0A in the URL, just like you've used %20 instead of the space character.


Try to replace the \n with %0A just like you have spaces replaced with %20.


Use %0A (URL encoding) instead of \n (C encoding).


late to the party, but if anyone comes across this, javascript has a encodeURI method
