the search seems to drop off everything including and after the '&', so e.g. "heart & lung" returns "heart".

    this is probably in the handling of $origTitle and $title

    this happens in the servlet; the title is passed in properly from php. the servlet prints \"heart & lung\" to stderr, but doesn\'t re-urlencode the & to the outgoing url query to pull up the xml. need to find servlet api function that can urlencode().

    needed function was

    String java.net.URLEncoder.encode( string );
