title: HTML5 - URL characters stripped when using sms href
body: <p>I'm using the following format to open the SMS view on mobile phones from a browser</p>
  
  <pre><code>window.location.href = "sms:[phone number]?body=" + message;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to add the following google map URL in the SMS body</p>
  
  <pre><code>var myAddress = "https://maps.google.com/maps?q=North+Miami,+FL+33190,+USA"
  window.location.href = "sms:11122233333?body="+myAddress;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The SMS view opens fine on the phone and the SMS body is populated but the <code>+</code> signs are stripped out and replaced with spaces. I don't know what's causing this... How can this be prevented?</p>
