transparent sessions don't appear to be w3c compliant, in that when a url is not cookied, it appears as, eg

<a href="index.php?id=xyz&PHPSESSION=3982982">
where it should be
<a href="index.php?id=xyz&amp;PHPSESSION=3982982">

Not a bug, see this part from php.ini-recommended:

; The separator used in PHP generated URLs to separate arguments.
; Default is "&".
;arg_separator.output = "&amp;"

This applies to PHP 4.0.6 and above. 
So update first.

Shouldn't &amp; be made the default? Since that's the only correct thing, and at least since HTML 2.0 &amp;-style quoting was required.

Or are there browsers doing it wrong? Bad browsers in that case, but it could be a reason to not change the default: Apache for examples has also some workarounds in their default httpd.conf for buggy browsers.
