Depends very much on the document type of your page. Valid XHTML
(transitional, at least), for example, doesn't like single ampersands in <a
href=> links. For XHTML, you need to replace "&"s with "&"s.
So the following link:
<a href='http://www.somewhere.com/index.php?id1=1&id2=2'>Something</a>
...should be changed to:
<a href='http://www.somewhere.com/index.php?id=1&id=2'>Something</a>
