Simple Method String error

Hey there,

I got quite an unusual error here. I am trying to parse a url to a java
class that I created. The url is created dynamically and then parsed to
another method of mine... :

	<!-- Toolset Function -->
	<simple-method method-name="generateProductPriceImagesAll"
		short-description="Refresh the Productprice Images for all Products">

		<!-- Retrieve all Products from Entity Engine -->

		<entity-condition entity-name="ProductsAndPrices"
			list-name="productList">
		</entity-condition>



		<!-- Run through Productlist and generate the ProductPriceImages -->

		<iterate entry-name="products" list-name="productList">
			<if>
				<condition>
					<not>
						<if-empty field-name="products.productName"></if-empty>
					</not>
				</condition>
				<then>

					<!-- Generate Product Map File -->

					<set field="productOutMap.message"
					
value="imgname=${products.productId}_price.png&v1=${products.productPrice}&v2=${products.productPrice}" 
						
						type="PlainString" />


					<call-service service-name="generatePriceImagesAll2"
						in-map-name="productOutMap">
					</call-service>


				</then>
			</if>
		</iterate>



	</simple-method>





This should work, but the following error arises on call:

 
Service dispatcher threw an exceptionError running simple method
[generateProductPriceImagesAll] in XML file
[org/brandsparadise/solr/SimpleMethodServices.xml]: (Could not parse XML
file (The reference to entity "v1" must end with the ';' delimiter.))

That was not in my reply. I repeat:

value="imgname=${products.productId}_price.png&amp;v1=${products.productPrice}&amp;v2=${products.productPrice}"

You must be using a mail client that is rendering HTML, or nabble.

In yours you had the ampersand character. He actually had the  
ampersand character then amp;.

I'm not sure what my client does with escaping, so I'll try three  
things.

You need to replace the ampersands with
&amp;
&amp;amp;
"Ampersand Character"+"amp;"

I'm not sure which of the above will appear right, but I hope I got  
the idea across.

I use a text based email.
I can see the difference.

looking really close here, but even when I go through each character one by
one, I cannot find the darnest difference:


yours
value="imgname=${products.productId}_price.png&v1=${products.productPrice}&v2=${products.productPrice}" 

mine
value="imgname=${products.productId}_price.png&v1=${products.productPrice}&v2=${products.productPrice}"

Right, and how do i do that?

I tried using:

value="imgname=${products.productId}_price.png\&amp;v1=${products.productPrice}\&amp;v2=${products.productPrice}"

since a backslash is the usual way of escaping. But this won't work...

You need to escape the & characters:

value="imgname=${products.productId}_price.png&amp;v1=${products.productPrice}&amp;v2=${products.productPrice}"
