uh, well -- <http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/charset.html#didx-character_entity_references> Authors should use "&" (ASCII decimal 38) instead of "&" to avoid confusion with the beginning of a character reference (entity reference open delimiter). Authors should also use "&" in attribute values since character references are allowed within CDATA attribute values. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just because most browsers render basically *anything* thrown their way regardless of validity doesn't make using '&' by itself right, even with an HTML4 doctype. > Also c:redirect requires an unescaped version of the > ampersand. You can use <c:param> and not assemble the query string yourself, which is probably better practice anyway.
