I have a reference to a web counter in my page, which according to my
ISP should look like;
<IMG SRC="/cgi-sys/Count.cgi?df=sigma-index.html&st=1000">
However the W3 validator wails about the ampersand '&' before the st.
It insists the line must look like;
<img src="/cgi-sys/Count.cgi?df=c-compiler-com-root&ft=0&dd=D"
title="Counter" alt="Counter">
in other words we must use & instead of just &
Is this how valid HTML must specify an ampersand? Both versions seem
valid in my web browser. The & version looks a bit strange and I
am surprised that W3 validator regards it as necessary.
