Re^2: param() and param value that contains &

I cannot control the formatting of the URL as it is generated by another system.

I think I will have to use $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'} and try retrieving the params and values that way.

Thanks for your input,
Gary

Indeed. CGI parses the URL queries as it they were x-www-form-urlencoded format(). Since your URL queries is in another format, you'll have to find yourself an appropriate parser for that format. — With some useful deviations that aren't relevant here.	[reply]
