Stefan,

I know that umlauts, whitespaces and some special chars are invalid in
URLs. 
What did you mean with "escaping them"? I've try it wiht "\" with no
success.

Other question...how will you do, if you use

<a href="[area href="scan/se=[loop-field name]">[loop-field name]</a>

and the field contains "Hans Müller" or "Meier & sons"?
If you encode the char "&", you will not get a right page for "Meier &
sons"!
Or have you a solutions?

ciao

Joachim
