    Hello,

    Please use htmlspecialchars with 'url' in that case:

    $docx->addLink('Link to Google', array('url'=> htmlspecialchars('http://www.domain.com?test=111&attr=content')));

    We have opened a task to apply htmlspecialchars automatically to 'url' option in addLink in the next release of phpdocx.

    Regards.

    Hello,

    There's no release date for the next version of phpdocx. Using phpdocx 11 and previous versions, you can use htmlspecialchars from PHP to add URL with protected XML characters:

    $docx->addLink('Link to Google', array('url'=> htmlspecialchars($url)));

    You can use the previous code to add links with and without protected XML characters.

    Regards.
