Ampersand in OpenX "targeting" parameters breaks JSON parser #140

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The following config breaks the JSON parser:

              "servers": [
                   {
                      "type": "OpenX",
                      "apiAddress": "http://openx.openvideoads.org/openx/www/delivery/fc.php",
                      "customProperties": {
                            "target": "category=food&gender=male" 
                      }
                   }
              ],

The & is the problem

Resolved.

Config for multiple parameters to be separated with a & is now as follows:

              "servers": [
                   {
                      "type": "OpenX",
                      "apiAddress": "http://openx.openvideoads.org/openx/www/delivery/fc.php",
                      "customProperties": {
                            "target": [ "category=food", "gender=male" ] 
                      }
                   }
              ],

Results in a call such as:

Loading VAST data from OpenX - request is
