urlencoded strings have 2 hex digits after the % representing the ascii value of the character
3C hex = 60 dec, ascii 60 = < the table I'm looking at only has dec, hence the conversion :-) so... %3Cb = <b Looking at the source at http://www.revolution-os.com/screenings.html. All links from Tayside to Northside are missing the closing > on the A tag, the <b is the opening of the following bold tag.
