IE converts it in a URL. Mozilla does as well. I'm damn sure
Opera clones this behaviour, as does KHTML and any other
non-anal modern HTML rendering application.

It's standard practice to do this: as such, so does V. And V
is right - although we're all reluctant to implement it so -
to do this.

Don't argue with the most frequently implemented solutions.
It just gets you into scrapes (like 

<body>
<a href="test.html?var=10&uuml=19">test.html?var=10&uuml=19</a>
<a href="test.html?var=10&num=19">test.html?var=10&num=19</a>

<br>&uuml is u umlaut, as is &uuml; - and &num doesn't work, and nor
does &num;. ExoBuZz's site sucks :)<hr>
</body>

will demonstrate :)

Thanks
