HTML entities in web scenario

[Einkill]

Hi!

I'm testing Zabbix 3.4.0 alpha2 and got stuck on web scenario

Server is getting variable with HTML entities

1568:20170801:111914.247 End of http_substitute_variables() data:'<t:RequestSecurityTokenResponse xmlns:t="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/02/trust"><t:Lifetime><wsu:Created xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd">

And during post it converts every character as single character but not entity

1568:20170801:111914.247 process_httptest() use post "wa=wsignin1.0&wresult=%26lt%3Bt%3ARequestSecurity TokenResponse%20xmlns%3At%3D%26quot%3Bhttp%3A%2F%2 Fschemas.xmlsoap.org%2Fws%2F2005%2F02%2Ftrust%26qu ot%3B%3E%26lt%3Bt%3ALifetime%3E%26lt%3Bwsu%3ACreat ed%20xmlns%3Awsu%3D%26quot%3Bhttp%3A%2F%2Fdocs.oas is-open.org%2Fwss%2F2004%2F01%2Foasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd%26quot

Is there any way to change the entities in variable for correct symbols before making POST?

Sorry for my bad English

I also tested zabbix 3.4, the new functions urlecode or urldecode don't work on html entities in http test, I think we need a function to be created such as "htmlentitydecode", common html entities are carriage return and linefeed in http response.

I use part of the codes in https://bitbucket.org/cggaertner/cst...ter/entities.c and embedded in Zabbix 3.4 source files "src/libs/zbxhttp/urlencode.c" and "src/zabbix_server/httppoller/httpmacro.c", initial test I have done can decode the html entities in HTTP test variables, hope Zabbix can fix this issue in the future release.
