My site has urls like
$shareurl = http://www.mysite.com/?view=main&title=here-is-some-title
So if i put this url in facebook and twitter sharer links appear like below
facebook sharer url:
<a target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/dialog/feed?app_id=MY_APP_ID&link=<?php echo $shareurl;?>&picture=Picture.jpg&name=this is name&caption=this is caption&description=this is despcription.&redirect_uri=<?php echo APP_BASE_URL; ?>""> Share on Facebook </a>
& character into $sharerurl splits the facebook sharer url. The situation is same in Twitter.
How can i avoid from this condition by simplest way?
If you use this code you should be fine:
<a target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/dialog/feed?app_id=MY_APP_ID&link=<?php echo urlencode($shareurl);?>&picture=Picture.jpg&name=this is name&caption=this is caption&description=this is despcription.&redirect_uri=<?php echo APP_BASE_URL; ?>""> Share on Facebook </a>
It turns the &s in the URL into %26, which Facebook & Twitter will read just fine without thinking that parts of URL are really parts of their URL.
