& in dynamic keywords wuestion

Hi,

I'm using some php to insert some dynamic keywords using ?kw=keyword on the url.

How can I put an '&' in the keyword? I have a short script to strip out hyphens and capitalise the keywords so that ?kw=black-and-white becomes Black And White.

I'd prefer to use an "&" instead of "and" but it doesn't show when I use it.

How do I do this?

Thanks,
Bob
