Yes, this is exactly what I need, I am obviously being really stupid,but it is not the finding of such commands is the implemetation of
 them. This example on the page you referenced is obviously intended to
 be really helpful
 
 Example 1. urlencode() example
 <?php
 echo '<a href="mycgi?foo=', urlencode($userinput), '">';
 ?>
 
 But I don't get how to implement it at all and thats whats doing my
 head in. Adding what I think this means to my script e.g
 
 <?
 require "config.php";           // All database details will be
 included here
 $page_name="test.php"; //
 $query="SELECT name FROM database1 ";
 $result=mysql_query($query);
 echo mysql_error();
 while($get = mysql_fetch_array($result))
 {
 echo '<a
 href=http://www.myurl.com/search.php?q=$get[name]&Search=Search>$get[name]<br>',
 urlencode($get[name]), '">';
 
 }
 ?>
 
 fails as I clearly don't understand what to do with the variable -
 should this be on $get or $results, does it need to be a new variable i
 reference from that line on - this is where I get totally confused and
 none of the examples I can find or that are on this page clarify for
 this me one little bit.
 
 Could someone just show me exactly how to use this function? I'm stuck
 on this and can't move on. Everything I try fails in an error.
