W3C Validation

There seems to be no way to get this statement past W3C Using Transitional Validation. It seems to not like the & (at least that is what it seems to me it is saying). Any thoughts?

action='index.php?action=vote&id=20&vote=votes_up'

According to the documentation on the W3C site:

Quote:

- A reference to a URI that uses & as a separator between parameters, such as "http://example.org/prog?x=1&y=2".

To solve this problem, simply replace all the &'s in attribute values with & (user agents will convert them back before following the links.)

So change your line to be:

Code:

action='index.php?action=vote&amp;amp;id=20&amp;amp;vote=votes_up'
