y includes only figures, my-id includes figures and letters.
I use the link as an URL for Curl.

I work with Rexx (Regina) under Windows XP SP2 with the port of Curl
under Rexx. I have used the Say (Rexx) function that type a variable on
the screen to show what is passed to the Rexx Curl function : it is
correct with the & = ? as they should be. And similar characters are
included in the URL that the application send back.
I have tried an other version of the program with the URL between quote
but this change nothing...
Do I have a way to check what Curl and FireFox exactly send on the line ?
