Here's something strange. I have a FMP form that generates a confirmation email to the user upon a successful submission of the form to the DB:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" content = " 3; URL=FMPro?-db=DesignCalendarDB.fp5&-format=thanks.html&-mailto=[FMP-Field: Lister Email]&[email protected]&[email protected]&-mailsub=Thanks for your submission&-mailhost=mail.design-calendar.com&-mailformat=mail.txt&-recid=[FMP-Currentrecid]&-Find">

Using the file "mail.txt" the email to the user lists all of the information the user inputted into the form by field e.g., Event Name: [FMP-field: Event Name] etc.

This works, BUT in the email symbol characters in the text fields generate artifacts. For instance, if the field content is "Kitchen & Bath" the content in the email will indicate "Kitchen &#38; Bath"

Where is this "#38;" coming from? Any ideas?

Try this: [FMP-Field: Event Name,Raw]

All the best.
