I wonder if I am missing something obvious here ?.

Can anyone tell me WHY my two example hyperlinks behave differently, as they both look identical but just expressed differently.

So the hyperlink that works (expressed using ESCAPE codes) -
http://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e11021.m45.l1123/7?euid=5352848142992251064&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.co.uk%2Fws%2FeBayISAPI.dll%3FViewItem%26item%3D150472423977%26ssPageName%3DADME%3AB%3ASS%3AGB%3A1123

And the hyperlink that fails (expressed using ASCII characters) -
http://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e11021.m45.l1123/7?euid=5352848142992251064&loc=http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150472423977&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:GB:1123

But if you manually translate all the ESCAPE characters from the first example, then you end up with the second example !
