Hi! I've been searching the net for ages without any solution to my problem.
Here's the thing:

I'm trying to make term-links go to "myview&tid=" instead of "taxonomy/term/" which is the default link in taxonomy.module.
I'm trying to edit the function: function taxonomy_term_path($term) to return 'myview&tid='. $term->tid; instead of the original value but the special characters (&) and (=) ends up getting encoded into %26 and %3D which kills my link.

Is there a way to escape these characters from getting encoded? I'm not too familiar with PHP and could need the help!

Thanks for your time and happy holidays!

First, be sure that you aren't editing the core function.
http://drupal.org/node/144376

You want to use a hook for such a modification.
http://api.drupal.org/api/function/hook_term_path/6

Second, this may work better if you assemble the path using the URL function.
http://api.drupal.org/api/function/url

function custom_term_path($term) {
  $options = array('tid' => $term-tid);
  return url('myview', $options);
}

Note: in the function name, replace "custom" with your custom module or template name.
