I found the preference CODE REWRITING and changed it to nothing checked but it only helped for a short time. Any Help Please advise. [elephant2]
 
Your problem is the pid variable. The code for the special character of pi (mathmatical symbol) is
Code:
π

To solve this issue you need to replace the line [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.izmoauto.com/comparecars/validate.jsp?did=6598&pid=comparecars[/URL] 

With
[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.izmoauto.com/comparecars/validate.jsp?did=6598&pid=comparecars[/URL]

This will replace the pi symbol with the ampersand

oops

The code for the special character of pi (mathmatical symbol) is "& p i" without gaps. Therefore you need to replace the line above with "amp;" between the & and pid to get it to work.

Funny, The program kept adding the "amp;" to the target address code and I kept taking it out because it was not working, possibily the link has a problem and not the code. I hate it when I try to fix something that ain't broke, what a waste of time. I will contact the support staff for izmoauto today. Thanks, Richard

The changing of the other text to 6598Àd got me confused also, any idea of what that is all about? [wavey3]
