Shouldn't that be &amp;bin , or are old browsers missing that one?


it should. make a search in dst_html and you'll find a lot of un-encoded stuff [at least last month i tried] but w3c seem to be ok with this

as long as & is not followed by something that makes it an entity it's fine. But a new entity may be added any time. encoding is not perfect, because of the old browsers as pointed out by Per Einar.


The proper solution is to use ; instead of & for args separating, which CGI.pm and Apache::Request support if I'm not mistaken. I've just tested and this works with the url in question. I'll fix that one. Please check other occurences that you find problematic.

BTW, this is documented at:
