Using with more than one parameter/value pair

I've been looking for documentation, but couldn't find anything that
specifically discusses what I'm running into. Whether it's not there, or I'm
using the wrong search terms, I'm hoping that someone here can help me.

I have a GET request that has the following pattern:
http://www.foo.com?parm1=value1&parm2=value2&parm3=value3

When I attempt to run the task, I get the following error message (with -v
used). I have tried putting in a delimiter as suggested, tried just 2
parameters. The only time it's gone through has been when there was only one
parameter in the GET:

Re: Using with more than one parameter/value pair

Posted by Antoine Levy-Lambert <an...@gmx.de>.
Hello Liz,

remember that the ant build files are XML.

In XML, to produce a value of & (ampersand), you have to type in
&amp;

so

http://www.foo.com?parm1=value1&amp;parm2=value2&amp;parm3=value3

Regards,

Antoine
