Yes, most browsers do encode form data prior to submitting it. Yes, it is a
standard, as per RFC1738. No, it doesn't usually break.
However, you should be careful about echo()ing URLs with spaces or other
simbols in them, for example:
<?php
$escaped_term = rawurlencode($term);
echo "<a href='search.php?term=$escaped_term'>Repeat search</a>";
?>
In most other cases, you won't need to worry about URL encoding.
