Hi Lars-Hendrik
I did this and I can see the translated string %3D in the message. Even on
the kannel log, I see that the message having = symbol is delivered.
But when I physically get the SMS on my phone, it breaks up from where the
= is starting. I cant see the entire message on phone...
I am using following java code, sample output is pasted below.
System.out.println("Before encode URL: " + message.MESSAGE_TEXT);
message.MESSAGE_TEXT = URLEncoder.encode(message.MESSAGE_TEXT);
System.out.println("After encode URL: " + message.MESSAGE_TEXT);
Before encode URL: An Astronomer = was
After encode URL: An+Astronomer+%3D+was
Thanks
Ajay

how to you prepare / send your message?
If you use http-requests to send your message make sure to urlencode the
message before delivering.
Example:
<?php
$text = "5 plus 3 = 8";
$text = urlencode($text);
echo $text;
?>
will show: 5+plus+3+%3D+8
As you see the "=" is converted to %3D. This should work then in here:
http://localhost:13000/cgi-bin/sendsms?username=my&password=secret&to=+49123
45&text=
5+plus+3+%3D+8
Hth,
Lars-Hendrik
