Hi All,
Sorry I think I wasn't really precise.
I am using XML-POST to send sms through cgi-bin/sendmessage. Basically what
I do is very simple. I build the XML request into a string
and the I send it using an HTTP/POST. To write the XML request I am using
a Perl library (XML::Writer) which produces a valid XML.
When I post I specify the Content-type 'text/xml'.
res = $self->{'UA'}->post( $service_url, 'Content-type' => 'text/xml',
'Content' => $xml_str);
Everything works messages are processed and sent correctly and the content
of the message is escaped and un-escaped correctly. There is only one issue
with the delivery report.
The problem is that one of the element of the XML-POST
http://www.kannel.org/download/1.4.3/userguide-1.4.3/userguide.html#POSTXML
is the url to acknowledge the delivery <dlr-url> </dlr-url>.
This url in plain text (non XML or HTML encoded) is
http://localhost/delivery-report.php?send_history_id=xxxxx&to_number=xxxxx&type=%d
When XML::Writer writes the element <dlr-url> it rightly coverts & to
&. However, Kannel doesn't seem to un-escape the character and as a
result the url which is used by the smsbox to report the delivery is wrong
because the & is still &
Below an example of xml which I send to kannel:
*<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<message>
<submit>
<da><number>353870xxxxx</number></da>
<oa><number>35387xxxxxx</number></oa
><ud>Test%20send%20%E2%82%AC%20%25%3C%20%3F%20%3E%20%3C%2Fua%3E%20</ud>
<statusrequest>
<dlr-mask>31</dlr-mask>
<dlr-url>
http://localhost/delivery-report.php?send_history_id=13853217&to_number=353870xxxxx6&type=%d
</dlr-url></statusrequest>
<!-- request from application to Kannel -->
<from>
<username>xxxxxxx</username>
<password>xxxxxx</password>
</from>
</submit>
</message>

>From the smsbox log you can see that & is not un-escaped;

As I said before I tried to escape the & in HTML/URI way but the result was
similar.
