Is there another cgi variable when passing mulitple arguments? Probably choking on the ampersand - I like rudy's suggestion - you might try URLEncodedFormat() as a means to make it more palatable to the validator... <cfoutput> <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.chimp.com#CGI.PATH_INFO#?#URLEncodedFormat(QUERY_STRING)#" target="_blank">validate</a> </cfoutput> Maybe? - Joe <http://artlung.com/> -- ...................
