Folks:

I've read the mod_rewrite docs over and over for eight weeks now, and my eyes are all glassy, and I'm no closer to an answer than I was when I started. I'd be sooooo grateful for some help that I'd squirt!

I have URLs that look like this:

http://www.exmple.com/cgi-bin/forums/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=1;t=1924;

They work just great at the site itself, but fail in RSS feeds. I'm apparently being tripped up by the semi-colons, which need to be encoded, as they're not legal in URLs. People clicking those URLs get a 404, natch.

I'm sure this is a piece of cake to the people I see here; it's totally beyond me how to fix this.

Thanks for anything you can do to help!

Try replacing ; with %3B, which is the urlencoded version of ;
