Hi Richard, Thanks a lot for your tip and explanation. It did worked :) Warm Regards, Mário Gamito Richard Davey wrote:
Hello Mário, Tuesday, March 22, 2005, 11:42:13 AM, you wrote: MG> However, if you click and go to the respective page, you'll see that the MG> "@" is switched by "%40". Yes, because you are URL encoding it, which does exactly that. Put a space into an email address and you'd see a %20 instead, etc. The browser will convert it back for display purposes *within the actual browser* (i.e. title bar, status bar) but the actual text really contains a %40. If you don't want this behaviour, don't URL encode the email address. Best regards, Richard Davey
