Thank you Murray. The page is in xhtml 1.0/transitional. That was
precisely what I was worried about. The & will be converted as part
of the URL right? I mean, the printed URL resulting from clicking on
that link won't say & it'll just say & is this correct? Combined
with Rory's post this is really, really useful stuff and I thank you !
