Hi,

I want to use a separator in some queries in the URL

http://www.example.com/?k=1,2,3

It all works fine but the ',' is converted to the html '%2C', (I use
php URLencode, http://php.net/urlencode).

Why is that? I see many sites that don't convert the ',' in their
links, (sky.com for example).
Should I not bother converting comas as well?

What would be a better way of listing items in the URL?

Thanks

FFMG
