Re: Browser Compatibility

If I am not mistaken, this is a case where Netscape does not like passed parameters
with embedded spaces.  If you are using VBScript is ASP, do this:
varMain = "Male Shaving and Grooming"
varMain = server.URLEncode(varMain)
<.A href  ..............jsp?<%=varMain%>">
IF not ASP, maybe use 'Male+Shaving+and+Grooming', and strip the "+" at the other
end.
