no, this is not how it should look... the '&' in the above query string is saying the variable 'name' ends and a new variable follows. If you are submitting this in a form using method=get... it should look something like: ?name=PSG+%26+Inc if you are really passing this in a form using method=get, then this should be handled automatically. how are you accessing the passed variable? $_GET['name'] ?? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
