hahaha... convert it and that's it. that's related to programming and encoding convertion. It's not really an issue, & and & are useful in different ways.

Guys, naa ba paagi na ang & sa imo URL dili i-substitute sa browser ug &

Example:
Mao ni ako a na tag with the link
<a href="http://www.mylink.com/aID=1234&bID=1234=test.htm">

Then kung naa na sa brwoser kay kani naman i-display:
<a href="http://www.mylink.com/aID=1234&amp;bID=1234=test.htm">


Kahibaw ko sa Javascript kung i-enclose nimo ug

kay dili na niya i-convert ang & to &amp; pero unsaon na siya sa HTML? Naa bay paagi ana? Salamat.

Substitute "&" by its equivalent hex code "%26". HTH

is the link generated by some script or code? what language? kung html ra na, you need to convert them manually.

kung javascript na gikan then you can use this code

/* This script and many more are available free online at
The JavaScript Source!! http://javascript.internet.com

function html_entity_decode(str) {
  var ta=document.createElement("textarea");
  ta.innerHTML=str.replace(/</g,"&lt;").replace(/>/g,"&gt;");
  return ta.value;
}

alert(html_entity_decode("¿Hablas bien el espa&ntilde;ol?"));

The JavaScript Source: Snippets : Convert HTML Entities


if ever php pud ni cya, here's a simple html entity decode snip

<?php
$orig = "I'll \"walk\" the <b>dog</b> now";

$a = htmlentities($orig);

$b = html_entity_decode($a);

echo $a; // I'll &quot;walk&quot; the &lt;b&gt;dog&lt;/b&gt; now

echo $b; // I'll "walk" the <b>dog</b> now

i hope this helps

Does the given link has really an output? I think you need to change it link this:

<a href="http://www.mylink.com/aID=1234&bID=1234=test.htm">My Site</a>

... you actually miss a closing link tag...

also, i tried to right it in notepad and save as an .html, but nothing changed in the source code in the browser..
