in query string
If you're really paranoid (I should get extra Eudora hot peppers for saying that -- huh, no....), you might want to normalize space before you do the translate, to avoid extra "+" signs in your href:

<a href="{translate(normalize-space(@some_attribute,' ','+'))}">

Cheers,
Wendell

<a href="{translate(@some_attribute,' ','+')}">
