http://www.d-fens.ch
 
Encoded string is passed as a named parameter to the Cmdlet.

ConvertFrom-UrlEncoded -InputObject 'http%3a%2f%2fwww.d-fens.ch', 'http%3a%2f%2fwww.dfch.biz%2f'
http://www.d-fens.ch
http://www.dfch.biz/
 
Encoded strings are passed as an implicit array to the Cmdlet.
 
 
.EXAMPLE
 
ConvertFrom-UrlEncoded -InputObject @("http%3a%2f%2fwww.d-fens.ch", "http%3a%2f%2fwww.dfch.biz%2f")
http://www.d-fens.ch
http://www.dfch.biz/
 
Encoded strings are passed as an explicit array to the Cmdlet.
 
 
.EXAMPLE
 
@("http%3a%2f%2fwww.d-fens.ch", "http%3a%2f%2fwww.dfch.biz%2f") | ConvertFrom-UrlEncoded
http://www.d-fens.ch
http://www.dfch.biz/
 
Encoded strings are piped as an explicit array to the Cmdlet.
 
 
.EXAMPLE
 
"http%3a%2f%2fwww.dfch.biz%2f" | ConvertFrom-UrlEncoded
http://www.dfch.biz/
 
Encoded string is piped to the Cmdlet.
 
 
.EXAMPLE
 
$r = @("http%3a%2f%2fwww.d-fens.ch", 0, "http%3a%2f%2fwww.dfch.biz%2f") | ConvertFrom-UrlEncoded
$r
http://www.d-fens.ch
0
http://www.dfch.biz/

plain string is returned. The pipeline will continue to execute and all
strings are returned.
