Lynx browser & problem

Hi

not sure if i've posted this in the right area, it kind of covers asp and seo at the same time!

I've got an ecommerce site selling thousands of products all running from one productpage.asp and I recently got the lynx browser and decided to test some of my pages, most were ok but on my product page the lynx browser showed me an error.

Now the problem is due to the use of a & sign in my url, my url is like: category=xxxxx&productdetail=xxxxx

lynx only shows the url as category=xxxxx and fails to display the productdetail parameter of the url meaning that the lynx browser shows an error with my script because there isn't enough informtion for the sql script to generate.

this is happening because the & sign is being replaced by &
If i physically change the url on my website to category=xxxxx&productdetail=xxxxx i get the same error as i do witin the lynx browser.

I've got a feeling that this is causing errors with my indexing within google, is there any way to get around this problem? Would it cause problems?


thanks in advance!
Mark
