UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic UBB.classic 6 Support PHP and pasting links - use of ; vs. &

If there is no simple fix for this I'm just going to turn off the accellerator - it's not worth the hassle.

When I paste links in email, etc. now - they have ; instead of & in them, and most browsers, IM, email, etc. interpret that as a delimeter and break-up the link.

; is actually XHTML standard IIRC

Sub Zero got it right.

It will be changing in those programs as they move to XHTML compliance.

For example, AIM will have a fix for this in the next release. Currently you can use the link (create link) button in AIM to paste in the URL and it will not break it.
