Motivation [edit]
When you submit data to a web service you want to change the way that parameters are encoded.
Method [edit]
Changing the Separator Character [edit]
By default the separator character is a semicolon. You can change it to be an ampersand by adding the following attribute to the submission element:
separator="&"
Note that the ampersand must be escaped.
(09 MAR 2009 the default was changed to ampersand in the official xsd-file)
Changing the URL encoding Parameter [edit]
You can also change the way that special characters are encoded by using the encoding attribute.
The options are any of the character encoding systems such as:
encoding="ISO-8859-1"
encoding="UTF-16"
