I am using a form with some prefilled fields. It works great as long as the item name doesn't include certain special characters. For instance, if it includes an "&" anything after the "&" won't be prefilled. So "Mop & Broom Holder" prefills as just "Mop". Some of the product names we have are a bit long, so it can be a pain to have to type everything out. I know why this is happening, but I'm wondering if there is a way to include the "&" in a url and have it be part of the prefilled information.
This is the formula I am using in the button that leads to the form.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I figured this out like 5 minutes after posting this.
For anyone else running into this issue, the solution is to use ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT() in the formula.
i.e ...?prefill_Name='& ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT(Item)&'...
This changes the URL to ...?prefill_Name=Mop+%26+Broom+Holder...
