Ampersand Issue in firefox 3.5

Hi

Here's my issue -

In IE 8, a URL shows up as -

/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=93:the-pink-city&catid=42:rokstories&Itemid=111

But in firefox it shows up in the URL as -

index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=93:the-pink-city&catid=42:rokstories&Itemid=111

The difference is in IE8 we see "&" in the URL and in FF 3.5 they are seen as "&".

I am using a module in Joomla CMS named RokStories and the line in the PHP file I have narrowed down to is -

RokStoriesLinks['rokstories-<?php echo $module->id; ?>'].push('<?php echo $item->link; ?>');

I think its that link that something goes wron with in firefox.

appreciate any help.

Thanks,

UD
