Manfred Geiler commented on MYFACES-1774:
-----------------------------------------

We should introduce a config param as suggested by Mario:
http://www.nabble.com/Rendering-%22-amp-%22-instead-of-%22-%22-for-href-attribute-tf4849854.html

> HtmlLinkRenderer should output & instead of & as the url param separator 
> within href attribute according to HTML Spec

>             Project: MyFaces Core
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: General, JSR-127, JSR-252
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.5,  1.2.0
>            Reporter: Manfred Geiler
>            Assignee: Manfred Geiler
>            Priority: Minor

> Currently a <h:outputLink> with nested <f:param> components is rendered as
>   <a href="somepage?foo=1&bar=2">...</a>
> According to http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/ the character entity "&amp;" 
> should be used instead of "&":
> "Authors should use "&amp;" (ASCII decimal 38) instead of "&" to avoid 
> confusion with the beginning of a character reference (entity reference open 
> delimiter). Authors should also use "&amp;" in attribute values since 
> character references are allowed within CDATA attribute values."
> Though current browsers seem to have no problem with "&" characters within 
> href attributes, this issue gets serious when using XHTML. Not using the 
> character entity "&amp;" instead of "&" leads to invalid (not well-formed) 
> XML data!
> Therefore I think we should fix this.
> BTW, the RI renders the wrong "&" as well.
