Description

Decodes a string that includes HTTP escape characters.

HTTPDecode decodes the escape characters (+ and %) in a string that comes from an HTTP message header. Plus characters (+) are converted into spaces. Percent signs (%) indicate that the next two characters are the hex representation of a character. If a percent sign is followed by another percent sign (%%), it is converted into a single percent sign.

For example, the string

%%+%3f

is converted into

% ?

The AStr parameter is the undecoded string. The return value is the converted version of the string.
