html:rewrite possible bug

[Dennis Muhlestein <de...@zserve.com>]

We use the rewrite tag occasionally within some javascript.  We have 
never used it with more than one parameter until today.

Today when trying though, the outputted html is incorrect.

Snippet:
<<<<<<<<<<<
<%      java.util.Hashtable parms = new java.util.Hashtable();
         parms.put ( "PARAM1", "1" );
         parms.put ( "PARAM2", "2" );
         pageContext.setAttribute( "parms", parms ); %>
     <!--
     function MsgWindow()
     {
             newWindow = open("<html:rewrite href="/SomeLink" 
name="parms" />", .......
 >>>>>>>>>>>>

The expcted Output is /SomeLink?PARAM1=1&PARAM2=2

Instead, we get /SomeLink?PARAM1=1&amp;PARAM2=2
(NOTE THE &amp;)

Is this a known issue?

html:rewrite & sslext:rewrite are affected the same way.

Neither html:link or sslext:link show this behavior. (Docs say they 
should behave the same minus the "<a href..." part)

We are using 1.1rc1
I tried an older version and the same behavior was present.

TIA
-Dennis
