If it finds either in the body of the post, the text gets truncated. A lot of URLs have these, including Google maps location links.

This is very annoying so does anyone know how to get around it?

abc&def

Just testing. How did you do that, BontyBuns? I have until now endured the living nightmare of not being able to say '+1' on every thread.
