I have a text file that the client updates and I load the var into a flash file

```auto
 
&coordinate_1=39° 30&#146; 42.28&#148; N 101° 14&#146; 29.73&#148; W
&coord_link_1=http://www.google.com/maphp?hl=en&q=WaKeeney,+Kansas&ie=UTF8&z=12&ll=39.027452,-100.062447&spn=0.188562,0.43396&t=k&om=1
&info_link_1=http://www.instructables.com/id/E3ASXK736TEP2864EL/

```

but when you clik on a button that is linked to the “coord\_link” it cuts off the url at the = sign

so the links look like this the the new page open up, not good…  
[http://www.google.com/maphp?hl](http://www.google.com/maphp?hl)

anyway to work around this
