Ayup. Just as a "for your info" technically the ampersand is ILLEGAL in a URL. Its kind of been made an "acceptable non-conformance" by the sheer force of common useage, but it is still not really correct, hence the perennial problems with encoding it. Like Matt says, use semi-colon! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
