Symfony2 Routing annotation gets url encoded

I've playing around with annotations in Symfony2.5 and am struggling to output a nice clean url like this:

.../display&type=foo&id=1

What I always get is:

.../display%26type=foo%26id=1

Why is Symfony2 url encoding this?

My controller looks like this:

/**
 * Displays content
 *
 * @Route("/display/type={type}&id={id}", name="content_display")
 * @Template(...)
 */
public function displayAction($type, $id = null) {
...
}

my twig template has:

<a href="{{ path('content_display', {'type': type, 'id': entity.id}) }}">{{ entity.id }}. {{ entity.name }}</a><br />

So I've tried to add |raw and autoescape off tags described here. But no luck so far, any ideas?

Thanks!

/display/type={type}&id={id}

...is not a valid URL... you'd have to replace that second slash with a ?:

/display?type={type}&id={id}

That said, the route is meant for path replacement -- not parameter replacement.

I'm pretty certain that if you change that to simply /display, when you try to render the URL with your key-value map, then Symfony will add those as parameters, since it can't find those keys in the path itself.

Edit:

Confirmed via the documentation:

The generate method takes an array of wildcard values to generate the URI. But if you pass extra ones, they will be added to the URI as a query string.
