strange URL formate in head

    The code in the head <script> that yoast inserts has URLs that seem like they are not formatted correctly.

    Many show as https:\/\/wildernessclassroom.org\/#website . Why are there \/ in urls rather than //?

    Is it normal that it is formatted like this? If not, how can I correct this? Code from header is below. I have looked at many pages and they all seem to have the same type of url formatting with \/ in urls.

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    @wildernessdave The \ character is used when a character is ‘escaped’. This is defined as ‘a character that invokes an alternative interpretation on subsequent characters in a character sequence. An escape character is a particular case of metacharacters. Generally, the judgement of whether something is an escape character or not depends on the context.‘

    Basically, certain characters will be interpreted by a script as part of the scripting language instead of part of the value of the URL unless it is specified, which is what an escape character does.
