Also, say which version of LPS server you are using, and if the app is running proxied or SOLO.
Thanks

I've run into a strange problem with my application and I'm not sure it
the problem lies with Laszlo or somewhere else. My situation is this, in
my (proxied) Laszlo application I display a list of information which can
be edited by the user. When saved, I make a 'POST' request to my web
application, sending XML. Mostly this works just fine. My app gets the
XML, parses it and goes about it's business. However, in certain
circumstances, the XML received by my web app appears to be URL encoded.
All '<', '>', spaces, etc. are replaced by hex equivalents. So, instead
of seeing something like this:
<foo><bar>Some Stuff</bar></foo>
the application sees
%3Cfoo%3E%3Cbar%3ESome%20Stuff%3C%2Fbar%3E%3C%2Ffoo%3E
As far as I can tell, the difference between the two occurs based on the
URL to which the data is being posted. I get regular looking XML if I
post to a URL which looks like this:
http://foo.bar.com/app/blah/boo
However if the URL looks like this:
http://foo.bar.com/app/blah\blah/boo
The content of the post is escaped.
The reason this is an issue for me is that my URL (by design) contains a
user id as part of the URL. Most of my users will have a Windows id which
consists of a domain and userid, and is typically entered as
'domain\userid'. Obviously the URL needs to be URL encoded so that the
'\' gets escaped to %5C, but that shouldn't mean that the content of the
POST gets converted. My question is, who is doing the encoding? I know
that when I perform my 'doRequest', the XML is not escaped in any way, so
somewhere between the time I do the doRequest and the time the posted data
reaches my application, the data does get escaped. As I mentioned
earlier, I'm using a proxied Laszlo application.
Can any body shed some light on this?
Thanks!
