AAA Question Form Forbids Question Marks

If you click on the "Ask a question" link from the AAA Travel Disney World page at www.aaanne.com/travel/disney/index.aspx, a form comes up that allows you to ask a question. However, if you dare to include a question mark anywhere in your question, when you try to submit it comes back with an error that says 'Please remove potentially dangerous content from your input.' If you remove the question mark it works fine.

 

Not only is it broken for a question form to not allow you to use a question mark, but the unhelpful error message would probably lead most people to give up and not use the AAA website (the same error occurs if you request a trip quote and use a question mark in the "Questions or Comments" field). It was only through trial and error that I discovered that removing my question marks allowed me to submit a question.
