Re: Problem with setHref() encoding

Why on earth would you want to disable encoding?  "&"
is a reserved character entity in html/xhtml.  Yes, most browsers
handle the non-escaped "&", but the appropriate way to
embed "&" in html is "&".  If you
click that link, the browser will send it as "&".  It
does the conversion for you.  XMLC/Barracuda is doing the right
thing here.  You'll have to provide further explanation as to why
you would want to change correct behavior.
