How to format Whatsapp Web Message ?
I trying replacing tags like this :

$nl         = "%0D%0A";

$space      = "%20";

$MSG        =  nl2br($MSG);

$MSG        =  str_replace( array("<b>","<bold>","</b>","</bold>"), array("*","*","*","*"), $MSG);

$MSG        =  str_replace( array(" ","<br>","\n", "\r\n"), array($space,$nl,$nl,$nl), $MSG);

I tried using urlencode, htmlspecialchars and nothing.

I´m receiving on https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=XXX&text=MSG a totally unformated and with a lot of chars string. Like this :

%F0%9F%94%94%2A...
