No, that's wrong.
Any & in the URL that is NOT used to separate parameters must be
escaped. IIRC, the MS toolchain screws this up like so many other
things.

OK David, so here's the details:
When you've got a direct Action, in which there are several parameter,
it becomes a link like
.../wa/actionName?attribute1=xparam&attribute2=yparam
for example.
The HTML specification says the "&" in URLs must be escaped to "&"
so the HTML code for this link should be:
.../wa/actionName?attribute1=xparam&attribute2=yparam
and it was the case at least in 5.2.3 and earlier (I don't remember in
5.2.4).
So this thing that seems trivial and none harmful just ruined any
accessibility "rating" you're application could have (the ratings are
A, AA and AAA), at least above A (because it requires a valid HTML
code). And the European law says that public organisations must be at
least A but target AA.
On my particular side, we were able to provide most af our product as
AAA and they now all fall down to A...
I'm not sure I made myself clear, let me know if I'm still "weird":)

Hi,
what does this mean 'the & isn't escaped in Direct Action' ??? In the
response from a WODirectAction's action method or where??? It would
be great if you can explain me this issue a little bit more in
detail. I am also sure that with such a bugreport apple would not
spend a second before closing such a bugreport ;-)

Hi David,
just one major issue in 5.3: the & isn't escaped in Direct Action
which is a major issue (HTML conformance) as you cannot provide
anything to public organisation all over Europe (at least you can
only provide the lowest level of accessibility which is simple-A,
but can't do double-A or triple-A accessibility as it requires HTML
conformance...)
It used to work correctly before 5.3 (don't remember in 5.2.4).
I also think the date used to be displayed localized when the
session as a language set (at least the ones integrated in OS X).
But I'm not a WO expert, so my point my not be accurate;)

Hi,
could you please clarify those important fixes? I would really like
to know what exactly does not work.

Regardless of whether they have done this in the past or not, Apple
needs to explain when they will fix the problems in WO 5.3. I am
sure
many people have decided to avoid WebObjects for projects until the
fixes have been made.

update please? Just so we could plan for things. I don't see how
that could hurt anything.
