I know and this URL is bad. I assumed you are generating the URL (your
code is doing this) basing on the code fragment you gave ($text =
"regeling + formaat"). In that case the code is wrong (it should use
"urlencode"). If it's not your code, then you have no good way
to fix the the values you are getting. In url parameter values
the "+" sign and "%20" code both mean space character. If someone
wants to pass "+" sign in the URL, he should encode it (or pass
it in <input> fields in a <form> submited by GET method - this
way it's the browser who is doing the value encoding, so you
do not have to "urlencode" it).

I'm happy to hear that.
