If I want to make a link to a URL which includes some GETs can I just

Depends very much on the document type of your page. Valid XHTML
(transitional, at least), for example, doesn't like single ampersands
in <a
href=> links. For XHTML, you need to replace "&"s with "&"s.
So the following link:
<a href='http://www.somewhere.com/index.php?id1=1&id2=2'>Something</a>
...should be changed to:
<a href='http://www.somewhere.com/index.php?id=1&id=2'>Something</a>
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 !
You should use & for all document types, not only xhtml
