ID: 28554 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: kavol at email dot cz -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: PHP options/info functions Operating System: Linux (applies for any?) PHP Version: 4.3.6 New Comment: Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely to be the same. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Search before submitting a bug, we will also NOT change this until there is a browser that borks on this. Also, you can change this in php.ini if you really want to do this.

This was already reported as a bug and the solution is to set arg_separator; however, since php is closely related to html, it would be nice if it would be able to produce correct html with the default configuration. So, even if you can take this rather as a wish than a bug, please change the default configuration value of arg_separator.output to "&". btw, a lot of thanks for PHP! p.s. sorry for my English ... taken from http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/charset.html#h-5.3.2 - Authors should also use "&" in attribute values since character references are allowed within CDATA attribute values. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28554&edit=1
