encodeURIComponent in AngularJS $http service

Question

I am new to AngularJS and trying to learn the ropes.

I'm using the following line of code (untested mind you) to send an item of information to a server method that will then send an HTML email containing said item.

$http.post('/EmailItem', item);

My question is, do item's property values go through encodeURIComponent before being sent?

Bonus question: Is there a better way of doing the post? $resource seems on the face of it to be more than what I need...?

You don't need to encode the properties, $http does: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/src/ng/http.js#L758

As to the way of doing it.. This looks fine. You can switch to $resource if have an object that needs a couple of REST things on the server, but $http works fine in simple situations.
