Hi eveyone,
It looks like I was a little premature with my last message, since Htdig doesn't like 
my 'fixed' page any better than the bad one.
To recap:
I have a page which contains 26 links to the same database driven page, with a pair of 
parameters. The first of course is delimited with a Question Mark character, while the 
second is delimited with an Ampersand character. Initially the latter was actually the 
HTML entity. This works fine in a browser, which translates it back to the single 
character before requesting the URL, but not in htdig which sends the URL verbatim.

I therefore got the page changed so that it merely used a single Ampersand character, 
but htdig seems to be assuming that this is the start of an entity and strips out the 
entire parameter name, leaving: [ampersand] [equals] [value] (two single characters 
followed by a string)  
(hope that makes sense - I've seen too many of these examples broken because they 
tried to use the actual characters.)
I've re-read the config file, and the reference, but can't figure this out, does 
anyone have any clues?

Thanks,
Mike
