def build_query(params)
  params.map { |k, v|
    if v.class == Array
      build_query(v.map { |x| [k, x] })
    else
      escape(k) + "=" + escape(v)
    end
  }.join("&")
end

.escape(s) ⇒ Object

Performs URI escaping so that you can construct proper query strings faster. Use this rather than the cgi.rb version since it’s faster. (Stolen from Camping).

    '%'+$1.unpack('H2'*$1.size).join('%').upcase
  }.tr(' ', '+')
end

.escape_html(string) ⇒ Object

Escape ampersands, brackets and quotes to their HTML/XML entities.

    gsub("'", "&#39;").
    gsub('"', "&quot;")
end

.parse_query(qs, d = '&;') ⇒ Object

Stolen from Mongrel, with some small modifications: Parses a query string by breaking it up at the ‘&’ and ‘;’ characters. You can also use this to parse cookies by changing the characters used in the second parameter (which defaults to ‘&;’).
