Weirdest thing -please help

[Anon]

I am trying to pass an ampersand (&) in a query string (For the present I changed to '+', but same problem); the second time I use the variable that contains it, the '+' disappears.

The query string is dynamically generated from the variable '$n' for the name of a band category. Every category works fine except 'r & b / soul'.

The variable is globally declared and the values for n are properly encoded.

See <a href=http://wamex.org target=_blank>http://wamex.org</a>. >Bands >R & B /Soul click thru to the band page and back.

Thanks for the help.

I had the smae problem try using urlencode() to pass the variable it worked for me.
In the php manual will give you some additional info.
