Hey guys. I have a small problem. I am in a position where I have to submit a 
form to a javaScript function and pass that by url to page for processing. The 
issue is that there are cases when some of the form values are html, or tags. 
The JavaScript likes to auto escape these and when I pass that back through an 
url variable it breaks because it makes escapes tags and that makes ampersands 
which makes my variables not work at all. Here is the function in question. 

function wordSearchTaskPage() {

    var words= document.getElementById('wordToIgnore');
    var len= words.options.length;
    var wordList="";
    var j=0;
    
    for(var i=0;i<len;i++){
        if(words.options[i].selected == true)
        {
            if(j == 0)
                wordList= words.options[i].innerHTML;
            else
                wordList += ',' + words.options[i].innerHTML;
                j++;
        }
    }
        
        var formLink = 
'/admin/headerBox/index.cfm?content=wordSearchTaskPage.cfm&formSubmitted=1' + 
                '&id=' + document.getElementById('id').value + 
                '&wordToIgnore=' + unescape(wordList);
        
    //alert(formLink);
        .navigate(formLink, 'headerBox');
}

Let me know if you can help. Thanks a lot.
