URL Encode a string in jQuery for an AJAX request

Try encodeURIComponent.

Encodes a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) component by replacing each instance of certain characters by one, two, three, or four escape sequences representing the UTF-8 encoding of the character (will only be four escape sequences for characters composed of two “surrogate” characters).

Example:

var encoded = encodeURIComponent(str);
