I get this error when I validate a site:

"Bad value http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Arvo|Tangerine|Oxygen|Yanone+Kaffeesatz:400,700 for attribute href on element link: Illegal character in query: not a URL code point."

I guess that it's because of the question mark. Am I right or is it because of something else, and if it is the question mark, how can I fix it so it validates and works on the site?

  • Yupp, that made the trick. I had to use "%7C" instead of |, thanks fvu – Robin Cox Apr 07 '14 at 11:08
  • You're welcome. I just want to point out that that question comes up as the top result in Google when you search `Illegal character in query: not a URL code point`, which is why I flagged this question as a duplicate. – fvu Apr 07 '14 at 11:19
