Hi Ankur,

There is no standard for delimiter, only common practise. You can use
what you like.

The W3C has been recommending semicolon as a delimiter since 1994 or so.

That said, sending '&' so that it comes back as '&' is common,
correct, conforms to standards and expected by users and search engines.

Ian
