Laravel, GET: how to process the link received from the user and pass it further in a human-readable form?

Question

Laravel

On one form (method='get') the user enters a link in the input, let's say, http://example.comand submits the form (via submit).
Then it gets to the page where its link is in GET ( example.com ), as a result, the link of this page looks like this:
...?href=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com
Tell me, at what stage and how is it better to replace "%3A%2F%2F" with "://" ?
Thank you!
view of the address receiving form:

{{ Form::open(array(
                          'route' => 'pageInfo',
                          'method' => 'get',
                        ))
             }}
                <label>Укажите адрес страницы:</label>
                <span>URL:</span>
                <input type = 'url' name = 'href'>
                <input type = 'submit' value = 'Запуск'/>
            {{ Form::close() }}

Answer 1

suggested that the problem can be solved by redirects, the option is not suitable, but it seems like the only one.
If anyone managed to somehow overcome this - I will be glad to ideas.

Answer 2

this is standard behavior. for you, this is the url, and for the form, this is the text that needs to be escaped and url-encoded.
