I have buttons on my flash site, and they call their URL’s from a .TXT file.

//LOAD VARIABLES FROM TXT  
loadVariablesNum(“linkurls.txt”, 0);

.TXT file is as follows

url1=http://www.asdf.com  
&url2=http://www.asdfa.com  
&url3=http://www.asddsafa.com

what can I do if I need to use the “&” symbol in the URL?

thx!
