If you look at my signature you'll see what I mean.

http://www.funkymonkey.org/boinc/sig2.php?lhc=75&toprac=5

The image above should show 5 project lines to cut down on the size of the image (so it doesn't take over everyone's screens). It's ignoring the & and anything that follows so it doesn't see &toprac=5.

That means the signature will show 53 projects (currently) and will get larger as more projects come out.

What is actually happening is the & gets converted to &

So lhc=75&toprac=5 becomes lhc=75&toprac=5. What the script is seeing is 'amp', and not 'toprac=5'.

I have come across this before in other PHP driven systems. When you try to pass one PHP parameter through a PHP driven system it works fine; but passing two or more parameters, the & characters get converted and so will not work.
