Stopping at "&" sign in url?

[yvo]

I have a problem, i use:


RewriteRule ^album/([^/]+)/([^/]+).php$ index.php?l=artist&show=lyrics_album&artist=$1&album=$2

in the htaccess. But with url's having an "&" sign:

/album/artist & artist/albu&m name.php

It stops!
(as in it used vars:
$1 = artist
$2 = albu

in this case.

Using "%26" for urlencode doens't change it.

Please let me know,

Yvo

Try %2526
% = %25
