1. Read here www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.asp and find out how the text should be encoded to be passed to the url;
2. Encode the text using one of the solutions from here: stackoverflow.com/questions/776302/standard-url-en... (if using XE7 and above, then the best solution is TNetEncoding.Url.Encode()).
