Well, this is a good start to joining a mailing list!! I've just found out what the problem is - it's a bug in Dreamweaver MX 6.1 where when you make the change to the code, ie: in this case - & to & - it fails to save it properly. In fact, it does the same the other way round too, ie: changing & to &. The only way you can get round it is to amend the code in a text editor & then Dreamweaver handles it OK.
