Hello, i'm using htdig 3.1.5 on a box with PHP 3.1.12 the program htsearch provides me with html, in which following URLs can be found: http://myserver.de/search/results.php?words=sms;page=2 The problem is, the results.php script can't properly parse the URL and I can't use the variables $words or $page. I suppose this is because of the semicolons, because the same URL with '&' between the variables works. How can I get php to correctly recognise the semicolons? Semicolons between variables are supposed to be valid HTTP links. Thanks, christian capito
