Julian, Yes, you're correct that & and #38 (and other forms like <![CDATA[&]]>) are all exactly equivalent to & Thanks for the suggestions, though. It appears from further reading an research that there is no way to output an unescaped & in an attribute. However, for at least some browsers, the & in an HTML parameter works fine. We'll keep testing it with other (older) browsers to see where the limitations lie. From what I've read, some "near HTML" devices (e.g. Palm VII) don't support this, but we don't care too much about that for this particular application.

Anyway, AFAIK escaping the "&" as "&" in the URL is ok, actually the HTML recommendation requires it. Browsers should be perfectly happy with it.
