I think that you've missed the point - the ampersand is required to seperate out the parameters - not as part of the value of a parameter. You'd use %26 if you wanted to pass through an ampersand as a value, but not for delimiting the parameters. e.g. /pub.asp?meal=roast&pub=dog%20%26%20duck would be used to pass through parameters meal and pub with values "roast" and "dog & duck" > -----Original Message----- > From: Thomas B.
