XML export/import and certain characters

[Markus]

Hi

under certain conditions the export feature produces invalid XML. This happens for instance when a trigger contains a '<' (less than) comparison. The exported XML looks like this which is invalid. In fact, it cannot be re-imported.

<trigger>
<description>{HOSTNAME} was rebooted</description>
<expression>{{HOSTNAME}:sysUpTime.last(0)}<300</expression>
</trigger>

The correct method is to replace '<' with '&lt;' as shown below. On import this gets replaced correctly.

<trigger>
<description>{HOSTNAME} was rebooted</description>
<expression>{{HOSTNAME}:sysUpTime.last(0)}&lt;30 0</expression>
</trigger>
