'''Ampersand in URLs'''
 
(2002/1/27) URLs containing ampersands should have them escaped as an entity reference, i.e. & a m p ;".
This seems to be the only problem stopping the pages from being technically correct HTML 4.0 transitional.

(2002/1/25) The Set-Cookie header returned from the log in page doesn't include a path= variable.
Most browsers default to "/"; Lynx, at least, defaults to the path of the page, so login doesn't work. [[user:Carey Evans|Carey Evans]]
 
(2002/02/20) Actually, it looks like Mozilla defaults to the path ''to'' the page. When I wrote the report above, this was "" (for /wiki.phtml); now it's "/wiki".
This means that [[special:userLogout]] doesn't work for anyone who logged in before the path was changed, because it doesn't touch the cookie with path "".
