Ampersands in POST data parses as Query String Separator
Reported by Matt Todd | July 24th, 2008 @ 05:27 PM | in Release 0.5.2
This can be reproduced with the following code:
class Foos < Application
def bar
self.logger.debug params.inspect
ok
end
Then call:
client.post('/foos/bar', :key => "value&value2")
The interesting log part will reveal:
{:action => 'bar', :controller => 'foos', :key => 'value', :value2 => nil}
Ick.

- State changed from “new” to “resolved”
(from [206f65f37c43869d5ff97cab58c626079ef62a63]) Fixed bug with questionable characters being POSTed and mangled when parsed due to not being escaped. Includes new tests and additional testing actions for generated apps (for testing the client). [#57 state:resolved]
