Hi Jason
Exactly my findings. I have my own modified version of CGI.pm to handle ; and &. I use ; always in my scripts because it helps not to escape, and after all, it is the standard set by W3C.
But after practcing this for a while, I was bemused why browsers _still_ send their environemtn variables seperated by a & sign. The W3C standard should have got rid of this back in 1997! Ugh.
