I have a function in views.py

        def get_interview_type(request):
            i = None
            title = request.GET['title'] #Here the title becomes different
            try:
                i = Interview.objects.get(title=title) #it looks for that
dropdown value
                #Error according to pdb
                #-> i = Interview.objects.get(title=title)
                #    (Pdb)
                #    DoesNotExist: DoesNotE...exist.',)

                if i.interview_type == "Time Series":
                    visit_ids = i.visit_set.all()
                    reference_visit_list = []
                    for visit in visit_ids:
                        reference_visit_list.append(visit.reference_visit)
                    reference_visit_list.extend(visit_ids)
                    list(set(reference_visit_list))
                    len_visits=filter(None,reference_visit_list)
                    total_visits = len(len_visits)
                    return render_to_response('export/get_details.html',

{'visits':visit_ids,'count':visit_ids.count(),
                                           'total_visits':total_visits},

context_instance=RequestContext(request)
                                          )
                else:
                    return
render_to_response('export/get_interview_type.html',
                                          {'visits':i.visit_set.all()},

context_instance=RequestContext(request)
                                        )
            except Interview.DoesNotExist:
                pass

When the user selects a title from the dropdown this function is called and
does it tasks.
Now i have entered a string which include '&' ampersand thinking that it
can play a role of 'and' in normal english like this :-

'CI-2-UGI & Bowel Symptom Screening & Characterization'(It is one of that
dropdown value)
Now when user selects this value from dropdown the title does not remain
the same, instead the title changes to  CI-2-UGI(in title =
request.GET['title']) and  before the function executes i recieve a 500
error page.
This is what the error prints in runserver mode
>
/home/user/cpms/careprep/tags/4.0/careprep/export/views.py(66)get_interview_type()->None
-> pass
(Pdb) c
[11/Mar/2012 22:05:20] "GET
/export/get_interview_type/?title=CI-2-UGI%20&%20Bowel%20Symptom%20Screening%20&%20Characterization
HTTP/1.1" 500 64490

Also when i remove that '&'ampersand from the title there is no 500 page.

Now & is breaks the quesrystring what i know then how to solve the problem.
I try having a look to url -encode but no luck .

I want whatever the drop value contains (&,@ ....etc) it should not break ?
How to solve the problem ?

Thanks in advance
