Yes, I did! it prints properly. If I uri_escape it and sent there is not issue from perl side. But escaping the % sign adds new characters and it causes issues for me. I want to know if there is a way to pass a string in the format mentioned above as it is?

    Does the website work if you manually enter that string into the field?

    If so, analyze the difference between the data sent when manually entering the string and when using WWW::Mechanize::Firefox. For example the Mozilla Live HTTP Headers extension can show you the data that Firefox sends.
