Problem with %26 in URL

HI,

When ever I try to access a URL containing '%26' in my application, it is not rendered.

If I replace the '%26' with '&' character, it works fine.

I am using Apache as my webserver for my application.

Could you please help me with a rewrite rule that resolves the issue?

Thanks in advance.

-SB

The web server may be the wrong place to try and fix this. Is it possible to modernize your application to obey RFC 3986 URL encoding rules? What's actually producing these %26-es?
