& ampersand in URL

hello,

When I insert a link with FCKEditor, for example :
http://www.google.fr/search?start=0&q=ampersand
FCKEditor automatically replace it by :
http://www.google.fr/search?start=0&q=ampersand
and the URL doesn't work...

There is some messages about this problem in this forum, but no answers.

Thank you from advance,

Michel

Set ForceSimpleAmpersand to "true" in the config script.

Still an issue, resolution?

Well any resolution to this issue? It is now 2013-11-13 and I am having the problem with version 4.2.2 of CKEditor.

I was able to resolve ampersand issue

So far it appears the fix is simple to add this to the config.js file:

config.forceSimpleAmpersand = true;

I have not seen any adverse unintended effects yet. I hope this helps someone.

It took some searching but the post in this thread by cosmonaut on 2013-10-29 was the solution
