As a learning exercise, I'm running a page through the Bobby validator, and
have run across a small problem: an encoded URL has the ampersand within
it, and that makes Bobby crazy. So, I manually correct the code so that
what was formerly & is now & go to save the file, and DWMX2004 insists
on rewriting the code back to the plain &.

I've experimented with the settings under Edit > Preferences > Code
Rewriting, but apparently haven't hit upon the magic combination yet. Would
anyone care to share the secret???

TIA!

Regardless of what the validator says---

Does the URL work when it's encoded?

It sure does! :) And I figured out a way to make DW behave -- by changing
the code in the Property Inspector rather than in Code View!

Next item of concern is replacing onmouseover with onfocus within Menu Magic
2.... seems to be fine except on the home page!!! So instead of replacing
the onmouseovers, I added the onfocus and things seem to be working okay!

Thanks!

What about using the %xx equivalent instead of & or &?
