I had a page where I was passing colour info to a script using the standard html numeric scheme - e.g.
pulldown.php?out=#c0c0ff&over=#2020ff&item=#ffffff

but the params were not received by the receiving script
if the hash sign was used.

I do not know if this is a PHP issue or an apache one but what I assume is happening is that something thinks that a reference is being made to an internal anchor.

perhaps urlencoding culd have helped - and I had a workaround so this is not really high priority - 

Dave.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

You need to use urlencode here, for security reasons we strip the # if I recall correctly.
