title: selenium webdriver call link with special character
body: <p>i'm experimenting with selenium web-driver and would like to use something similar to the below code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
  driver.get("http:\\awebsite.com?that%20has%20x");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>unfortunately when i execute the code, in the browser appears: </p>
  
  <pre><code>http:\\awebsite.com?that has x
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>what do i need to do so that the %20 is not replaced by a "space"?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you in advance!</p>
