Hi all,

According to the W3C the url encoding of links should be:

Quote :
GOOD <A HREF="http://www.domain.com/cgi?x=123&amp;y=456">

instead of:

Quote :
BAD <A HREF="http://www.domain.com/cgi?x=123&y=456">

As described here:

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/appendix/notes.html#h-B.2.2

Is there a way in Codecharge to tell it to use "&amp;" instead of "&"?

If there isn't a way, can somebody tell me a trick to change it without losing the ability to change the code in CSS?

Thanks,

Gijs

I don't think that there is a way to change it.

Just couple notes on this:
1. This doesn't look like a standard or norm, as that W3 page states "The following notes are informative, not normative."

2. Here are only a few examples of major Websites that don't use this approach and use just the ampersand (&) character in their URLs placed within pages: Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, Sun, Oracle

Possibly this could be implemented if sufficient number of users ask for such feature, therefore you may want to submit a wish to our Wishes forum, or to the support.

Hi
You have to implement some output filter (Templates).

Check here new CMS XHTML/CSS/508 compatible
