I've done a search on this and I've seen some Joomla stuff, but nothing that seems to directly address the issue I'm having.
When I click the link option and get the link dialog, I try to type this in:
index.php?page=rulesandregulations&sub=briefing
The problem is the ampersand ( & ). When I try to type it normally, nothing happens. I have to copy an ampersand from another program and then paste it in to get it to accept it. I can't seem to find what is causing the ampersand to not be accepted from just typing it from the keyboard.
Can anyone shed some light on this? I have a frustrated customer who doesn't want to copy and paste ampersands when they are used to just typing it.

Re: Link with Ampersand...
Hi,
which extension to Joomla do you use and what version of Joomla? Please try our extension from http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/edition/editors/12821.
Re: Link with Ampersand...
I've already fixed the & issue, but I can't type in an ampersand straight into the link input box. I need a way to do that.
NO JOOMLA!
Re: Link with Ampersand...
Please check here http://ckeditor.com/demo if you have your issue there.
Please write me some info :
- which version of CKEditor do you use ?
- what browser, OS , server do you use ?
When you paste & character do you see it in editor properly ?
Can you give me link to your page, so I can check this by myself ?
Re: Link with Ampersand...
I'm currently using the new 3.6 CKEditor
Browser: Safari, Firefox
OS: Mac OS X
Server: Apache 2.1
Yes, when I paste it, it works fine. It's only when I try to type it straight.
Hmm... the link is behind a login page. Can I send you the information directly instead of on a forum?
Re: Link with Ampersand...
Is there a problem with ModalBox and CKEditor that you know of?
Re: Link with Ampersand...
There appears to be an issue with Prototype, Scriptaculous and ModalBox. I ended up updating everything to the very latest versions and it now behaves properly.
I'm sure it was something between Prototype or Scriptaculous because it wasn't until I updated those that it fixed the issue.
