&param bug on rules

[fabix68]

Even with the latest firmware remains the bug with the word "&param" which is converted to ¶m.
You may not be able to correct it?

Yes, please, it will be fine to send alerts to Domoticz, instead of waiting 5 minutes for a device refresh...

It seems that if &para is shown somewhere in a webform, the &para is interpreted as the HTML escape sequence for a paragraph sign, looking like a backwards P.

I don't know where it should be fixed and it's possible that it does not occur on all browsers.

But there's a workaround for this particular bug: Use the &param as the first name-value pair in the URL so it becomes ?param and it will no longer be misinterpreted.

Example:

change this:
sendtohttp 192.168.0.8,8080,/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=286&svalue=%eventvalue%
into:
sendtohttp 192.168.0.8,8080,/json.htm?param=udevice&type=command&idx=286&svalue=%eventvalue%

So we've just changed the order in which the url is build up.
