[Tab/API] Tabs Should Not Encode Params, API should add setting encodeParameters

[BigGrecian]

I am using ajax tabs to open up a customer's details and as such when the page is sent to the browser the tab url looks like so :

 <a class="active item" data-tab="profile.php?student=2027">Basic Profile</a> 

    <div class="ui bottom attached active tab segment" data-tab="profile.php?student=2027">

    </div>

However on upgrade to 2.0.7 the URL gets encoded as
./useredit/profile.php%3Fstudent%3D2027

which obviously returns a 404 code as it expects?
.useredit/profile.php?student=2027

As below :

This used to work fine in 2.0.3 and before

Any idea how to rectify this?

#2394 urlData is now urlEncoded by default.

I can understand why this would cause issues particularly with data-tab which sometimes will include the query string as part of the parameter.

It was a mistake not to include a setting to disable this. I'll add an apiSetting encodeData and make it false by default for tab.

Fixed in 2.1
