The reason the & character shouldn't be used in HTML is because it's a key element in the parsing of URLs (the & character separates parameters in the URL). So in this case, where the & character is actually in a URL, that is a perfectly appropriate usage of the character as it is separating the key value pairs bar=y and m=baz. Loek, this could be a more complicated issue. I'm not clear on whether this is an issue with TB! or with IE (I'd be much more inclined to believe it's IE). You say it works in plain text, but fails in HTML, but only if the destination browser is IE? If you copy the URL from the HTML email and paste it into the location bar of different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, IE) what happens? My initial thought is that it has something to do with the encoding and possibly the settings in your OS. Some rigorous testing would need to be done to narrow down where exactly the issue is occurring. -Sam -- ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
