Im using MIME style variables to load into flash, ie &variable=value&variable2=anothervalue&

but i want to have a value “Rates [COLOR=Red] **&** [/COLOR] Reservations” and of course [COLOR=Blue]&variable=Rates [COLOR=Red] **&** [/COLOR] Reservations&[/COLOR],well that breaks my variables…is there a work around so i can get ampersands into flash in my variables?
