SQL data rendering problem

i’m loading information from a database into my flash movie as external text. everything works wonderfully, no problems whatsoever loading the information or controlling it with external CSS.

what i’m loading is a list of businesses, including name, address, phone #, web address, etc.
i just tried linking the addresses to a map, choosing google maps (as it is by far the nicest). this is the URL for google maps:

http://maps.google.com/maps?oi=map&q=address

the problem is, flash stops displaying the information after the “&” sign. when accessed through the PHP document directly everything seems fine, but when loaded through the flash movie, i only see the text until the first “&” and then nothing.

did anyone encounter this problem? is there any way to go around this issue?
