Bug description: Treat ";" like "&" in HTTP GET
According to the HTML 4.01 implementation notes --
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/appendix/notes.html#h-B.2.2
--
``We recommend that HTTP server implementors, and in particular, CGI implementors support the use of
";" in place of "&" to save authors the trouble of escaping
"&" characters in this manner.''
Thus http://script.php?f=3;g=2 could be equivalent to
http://script.php?f=3&g=2
