Sorroundthe data, with a CDATA tag your web.xml excerpert will look
like:
context-param
param-namedatabase_dsn/param-name
param-value![CDATA[jdbc:mysql://localhost/test?user=testpassword=test]]/
param-value
/context-param

and

At Illegal character or entity reference syntax.
and
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `password=test/param-value'
apparently is an illegal character.
but how do i solve this problem?
i've thought of url_encoding this, but that's an ugly sollution.
anybody got a better idea?
