13. Ampersands in hrefs must convert "&" to "&" in the URI
<a href="http://www.phonelists.com/cgi-bin/Handler.pl?ListID=Test&Password=test&action=View">Sample List</a>
becomes
<a href="http://www.phonelists.com/cgi-bin/Handler.pl?ListID=Test&Password=test&action=View">Sample List</a>
# The attribute "name" becomes "id" when used for a locator inside a document
For example, to reference a section within a document with a URI, we usually do something like
"<a href="favoriteAnimals.html#meerkats">Meerkats</a>"
Inside the referenced section,
<a name="meerkats"><h2>Meerkats of Africa</h2></a>
becomes
<a id="meerkats"><h2>Meerkats of Africa</h2></a>
or better yet for backwards compatibility:
<a id="meerkats" name="meerkats"><h2>Meerkats of Africa</h2></a>
