Using PARAM NAME

Guest_imported · Feb 8, 2002

I'm trying to pass a URL to a flash (.swf) banner by using the PARAM NAME function. Everything seems to be fine other than the fact that if the URL has a & in it, it would not read the rest of the url. So forexample if it is:

<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="/test/banner_test.swf?clickTAG=

http://www.iii&uuu.com/">

it will only actually get

http://www.iii/

how can i make it so it reads the & and the characters past that too. Any help is appreciated.
