Fellow monks,

I am working on a wap interface: all the links in my wml card are in the form href="./op?op=x&param1=..." and the go to a perl handler which parses the args behind ?

My problem is that when I try to pass a parameter from an input field in my wml card that has whitespaces in it , the url behind the whitespace is ignored.
That is if my link looks like this : href="./op?op=X&param1=$(input_field)" and a whitespace happens to be in the variable $input_field, the part of the url behind the space is ignored.
Any workarounds? By the way, this is how I fetch the parameters from the url:

 sub handler($$) {
    my ($self,$request) = @_ ; 
    my $path = $request->request()->path_info;     
        my $argv = $request->request()->args;
