fails on special characters in username/password #2

Solution works fine apart from when there are characters, special to XML, in the username or password.

I would advise to fix by escaping the username and password before adding them to the XML template. The method to use for this would be 'escape' from xml.sax.saxutils.

Thanks for the report. You make a good point. This may also have been the cause of the authentication error seen in #1.
