Problem with RequestContext.addCallbackParam

[ybendek]

Hi...

Currently I'm having an issue using RequestContext.addCallbackParam method, if the object added is including an String with '&' character (ex "m&m") the args variable returned to client is "undefined", any idea how could I solve that? I'm using PF 3.4

thanks in advance

Did you try a newer version?

Did you try a newer version?

Unfortunately at the moment I cannot try a new version, this is an application builded with PF 3.4, I will have lot of compilation issues if try this with other releases like 4 or 5... do you know if it could be solved in a newer version?

Yes you can TRY.. i never said to use it inproduction (why do people always think that) But if a newer version has a fix, you can look at that source and maybe create a patch for 3.4

You may need to URL Encode the parameter values.

Well finally after lot of test and even now with PF 5.2 this issue persist/ The only way I found to solved was to encode using some utility for example org.apache.commons.lang3.StringEscapeUtils. with this util and using the escapeXml10() it change '&' to '&' and it works properly.
