hey henry0,

to edit your own post you click on the little owner edit image under your nick on the left side of the post.

I don't understand your question though.

I do, you could use strstr() to search and replace & with & if you like but really, who cares? as long as the rest validates it's so big an issue...

Hmmmmm... actually, it may be more tricky if you're using sessions as php does the string automatically...

hummmmm it was obvious thanks for the edit tip :)

now for the "&" ok that's no big deal
but what about that one ( by the hundreds!)

<<<

warticle.php?articleID=6340&PHPSESSID=f8e33f23a18916b221db76caf0c6d4fc">
>>>

where it says PHPSESSID

thanks

ah, now I see

I think Nick's first post hit it

as long as the rest validates it's not so big an issue...

<added>
you were posting while I was

have you read all of this?
PHP Session handling functions [ca.php.net]

I believe the setting is 'session.use_trans_sid'

there is some talk about dealing with sessions here in the user comments at the bottom
ini_set [ca.php.net]
