While & is illegal in XML and HTML it is perfectly legal (and
required) in an URL.
Just as in English, & is a legal letter in English, but when the
sentence is encoded into an XML or HTML file it needs to be encoded as
& Before being passed over the wire as part of a URI to retrieve a
document it will be parsed by an (XML or HTML) parser which will
interpret this as a single character.
but it didn't address my problem. Unfortunately the server thinks these
two URLs are different:
http://myserver/action.do?action=Approve&ID=7
http://myserver/action.do?action=Approve&ID=7
they are different but they also have differnt encodings in html.
the first is
http://myserver/action.do?action=Approve&ID=7
the second is
http://myserver/action.do?action=Approve&ID=7
this is a FAQ
