I've not read the long list of posts the come forward with javascript
solutions, but I think its a PHP issue, and you should go to

https://www.php.net

and look into

urldecode(), urlencode(), rawurlencode() and rawurldecode()

One of them is bound to get you there...

The problem is not PHP related, its javascript related and has to do
with the quoting order and the only thing you can change in PHP to "fix"
that is to have it issue a different quote order.
