Colon character in web monitoring

[Davidus]

Hello everyone,

My goal is to pass Overall health : Good. string to Required field in web monitoring scenario
Following is error I’m getting: Failed on "test" [1 of 1] Error: Page did not match
It’s obvious that zabbix don’t like colon character in the string unfortunately I have no idea how to escape colon character in web monitoring.
Any ideas folks?

I’m using zabbix 1.8.4

Thanks for assistance in advance!

Just out of curiosity, how do you know for sure the colon is the problem? Have you tried testing to be sure it works if you just look for "Overall Health" or "Good"? Does it really only fail if you put a colon in the string to look for?

Hello,
I tested variety of combinations "Overall Health", "Good", "Good." and it worked perfectly. I’m 100% sure that it fails because of colon

I viewed source of the web page and noticed that "Overall health :" was on one row and "Good." on another
