I have an agent which generates a MIME email. It includes a link in the HTML: <a href="http://…>. One of the parameters in numeric so that the URL looks like “…CustID=7334&Addr=home…”. If you look at the document properties you will see the URL correctly listed in the Body field. However, the hotspot link is converting the “=nn” to some sort of control character. Now the URL looks like “…CustIDs34&Addr=home…”. Any way to stop this? Is it some sort of Notes client preference?
Subject: encoding
I think this is because the encoding you’re using (UTF-8?) converts =73 into s
What you need to do is replace the “=” with “=3D”
So your line would change from
“…CustID=7334&Addr=home…”
to
“…CustID=3D7334&Addr=home…”
This only causes problems occassionally of course as =home for example doesn’t get converted as it’s not recognised as a convertable set of characters
