Hi all,

Was wondering if anyone has noticed what I consider to be a bug in Netscapes handling of parameters passed in the url. The problem is that if there are multiple parameters being passed and one of the parameters has a space in it, netscape will ignore everything from that point on even, and here's the great bit, if the URLEncode function has replaced the space with the + sign! For example my code generates the following link:

Code:
<a href=&quot;subprod.asp?prod_cat=7&prod_name=Muesli%2C+Grains+and+Seeds&quot;>

But Netscape 6 calls reads the link as:

Code:
subprod.asp?prod_cat=7

Anyone got any ideas how to make it recognise the full link - it's driving me nuts!!!

Thanks
