How to remove amp; from URL

Question

I am getting a URL that contains amp;. Is there any way to remove this as currently I tried URLDecode function, but It's not working. Do I need to remove It using simple string replacement or Is there any better way to do this?

Answer 1

As @Lankymart pointed out URLDecode only works on URL-encoded characters (%26), not on HTML entities (&). Use a regular string replacement to change the HTML entity & into a literal ampersand:

url = Replace(url, "&", "&")
