Description Dan Bolser 2010-05-28 16:10:54 UTC
I made a list of examples here:

http://sandbox.referata.com/wiki/Test1


Specifically, the problems include:

* The 'query string' parameter can't be anonymous (I'm sure you know this, but I'm just logging it here).
* Named parameters are sensitive to white space around the equals sign.
* The 'query string' is sensitive to white space (I doubt this can be fixed without changing the syntax of the parser function).


If I ever get round to it I'll try to work on these minor problems.
Comment 1 Yaron Koren 2013-12-27 15:30:20 UTC
Marking this as "wontfix"... though maybe I should have gone with "fixed", or "invalid"... I'm fine with anonymous parameters to #formlink not getting handled correctly; it's not the correct syntax anyway (except for true query string parameters like "preload", but those work fine). I'm also fine with the query string parameter(s) not being able to include spaces, since those params are meant to be sent directly to the URL, which doesn't allow spaces.
