# Raw URL Encode Except Slashes

URL-encode a variable according to [RFC 3986][rfc-3986]. Just like [rawurlencode](/modifiers/rawurlencode.md), but doesn't encode forward slashes (`/`).
```yaml
example: please and thank you/Mommy
```

::tabs

::tab antlers
```antlers
http://example.com/{{ example | rawurlencode_except_slashes }}
```
::tab blade
```blade
https://example.com/{{ Statamic::modify($example)->rawurlencode_except_slashes() }}
```
::

```html
http://example.com/please%20and%20thank%20you/Mommy
```
