Hi all, I'm experiencing problems when using ampersands in named parameters (Cake 1.3) which is a well known mod_rewrite problem.
e.g. if I request www.mysite.com/test/search:this%26that Apache rewrites it to: webroot/index.php?search:this&that That means it's not parsed correctly by CakePHP, as the ampersand in the URL treats the query string as separate name / value pairs. I don't want to double escape the ampersand as this results in ugly URLs. Apache introduced a B flag to rewrite rules in version 2.2.7 which solves the problem but it's shared hosting and they won't upgrade to that. I also tried the NE (no escape) rule but that didn't seem to make any difference. Anyone experienced the same problem and found a good solution?
