How to encode '+' in URL in order to save the record into oracle DB

I use the URL below to insert a record through a WCF into Oracle DB:

JavaScript

<a href="http://xxx/TransInfo.svc/Json/JAddOffsetInfo?&offsetID=6039&monID=9757&station=12+05"></a>[<a href="http://xxx/TransInfo.svc/Json/JAddOffsetInfo?&offsetID=6039&monID=9757&station=12+05" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>]

I got the problem that the value '12+05' is saved as '12 05', which means the '+' sign is filtered. I also tried use '+' for the '+' in the URL. But the '12+05' is saved as '12', which means the 2nd part is filtered out.
How can the '+' character be encoded so that it can be properly saved into Oracle DB (like a space in url is '%20')? Thanks.

Have you tried the obvious, encoding as %2B ?

The problem is that in the original URL standard + is a space...
Replace it with %2B and all should go right...
However it even should be better to URL encode the whole string...
