Double encoding in $.param

If you use $.param with already encoded value you'll get wrong value

E.g.:

$.param( {paramName: "36.593812%2C50.59396"} transforms to string "paramName=36.593812%252C50.59396"

But expected value was "paramName=36.593812%2C50.59396"

I think using decodeURIComponent for each param( maybe optional ) will fix this problem properly.

Nope. $.param() has no business trying to guess whether you are double-encoding your string. That's up to you.

Actually if you encode param when convert object to string, you should give ability to disable encode function.

Please look at example again, it's double-encoding after $.param, and problem is in $.param,

because it's using encodeURIComponent without ability to disable it
