POST encoding not working for "+" character
I am using HTTP Request HTTPClient sampler and I cannot get it to correctly encode a POST of a parameter value that includes a "+" character ... instead it send a space in its place. I've tried every encoding option available on the screen and it still sends a space instead of + to the server, which blows up the request. The default encoding is ISO-8859-1, but I've tried every option available including turning encoding off.
Any suggestions or workarounds?

The value is a a security token passed back to the server and it seems like it was only a problem for the plus character ... slashes were OK, not sure about other special characters. In any case, I tried to capture it and send it back to the server using the regular expression extractor and it worked.

Yes, please log as a bug. It would be helpful to attach a sample JMX
file that shows the error.

I figured out the problem. This only happens if I use the HTML Link Parser for the value. The value is a a security token passed back to the server and it seems like it was only a problem for the plus character ... slashes were OK, not sure about other special characters. In any case, I tried to capture it and send it back to the server using the regular expression extractor and it worked.
Not sure if this is by design ... if so, it should probably be documented. If not, should I log it as a bug?
