Yes Stephen that is true. Any URL being sent from HTML should be encoded
as good programming practice. IN your case the particular link itself is
incorrect.

Hi Stephen,

Using '>' in your link is incorrect since it is a special character in
HTML. What I am saying is that your code is incorrect. Your query string

must be scaped before sending tot he server. You must use the hex
representation of > in your link
i.e. %3E.

This should not only make your HTML correct but will solve your parsing
problem as well.

Unfortunately I am not the author of the page I a parsing.  BTW, this
was NOT a problem in the last production build.  It only arose for me
when I went to the latest integration build.

So if I understand your comment, if the link were URL encoded before
getting sent to the parser this would not be a problem?
