Ampersand in the home URL

[arempal]

I'm trying to change the home page URL by following this guide
http://webconverger.org/boot/ and everything works fine as long as
there is no '&' in the URL. As soon as I add '&' in the URL, the
Webconverger won't boot. I tried replacing & with %26, then
surrounding the whole URL with double and single quotes, and then
escaping & with \ - \& but all to no avail.

Do anyone know how to include & in the home URL so that it works?

This line is probably causing it to b0rk.

I suggest creating a domain for your Web application.

mkdir /srv/www/foo.example.com
echo "Redirect / http://bar.example.com?a=b&other=crazy&stuff=1" >
/srv/www/foo.example.com/.htaccess

Hi!

I put \& and it worked like a charm (on 5.5). Like this:

homepage=http://www.somedomain.org/limesurvey/index.php?
sid=12345\&newtest=Y\&lang=es

By the way, Webconverger (with webcfullscreen) + Limesurvey ROCKs as
an "suggestions box" kiosk.

Best wishes to all and specially to Kai, I really appreciate your
work and I must thank you for all your effort.
