Hi Gilles, Thanks for the note... sorry it took so long for me to reply. Your reply got filtered badly and I just saw it today! Sorry I didn't see the FAQ, I didn't realize that this was a PHP problem not being compliant. FWIW, I tried the following with PHP version 4.1.2 (the lastest): <HTML> <? print"foo: $foo<BR>"; print"foobar: $foobar<BR>"; ?> </HTML> with this URL: http://server/file.php?foo=hey&foobar=there Output is as expected: foo: hey foobar: there However, this URL: http://server/file.php?foo=hey;foobar=there produces: foo: hey;foobar=there foobar: Perhaps there is a compile option in PHP? Anyone else solve this issue? A compile time option with PHP maybe?
