If you are appending parameters to a URL, use the ? for separating the form/flow URL from the parameters and use the & to separate parameters from each other. For example, let's say you want to append the Pacific timezone parameter to the share URL of your form/flow. Here is an example using the Link(Email/Web page) URL for a workflow: Add ?_formTz=America/Los_Angeles to the URL. Use the ? since there are no existing parameters appended.
Here is an example using the Raw Flow URL for the same workflow: Add &_formTz=America/Los_Angeles after the last existing paremeter. Use the & since you are separating parameters from each other.

See default field values to understand the precedence that XML documents sent in the Post request to form B take over the other possible methods of defaulting form field values.
