When enabling url rewriting with sessions, the paramter seperator used for seperating the SID= from other parameteres in the uri is not w3c compliant.

PHP uses & (&amp;) for seperating the SID= from other paramters in an URI, w3c states (and they are so right) that this character is used for entities like &amp;. It could let to some hard to find errors in future browsers when they parse it like so.

I suggest php uses the ; for parameter seperation as the standards from w3c state.

It seems this 'bug' is 'answered' somewhat in bug #15804.
see there for info and my comment.

This bug can be migrated to 'bogus' therefore

See last comment, this bug is handled somewhat in bug #15804 which is marked as bogus.
