First, is there a better place to post an enhancement request?
Second, the issue at hand:
I recorded a script that has a POST that needs to post values that literally are text surrounded by braces, e.g.. in a web_submit_data lines that look like:
"Name=subpage-title-fossil", "Value=istring#{simplePageBean.subpageTitle}", ENDITEM,
When played back, LoadRunner complains about the invalid parameter.
The only currently-supported fix I can find is to change the left and right braces for the script in Tools | General Options | Parameterizations | Parameter Braces .
However, in our case, we make heavy use of an #include file that handles some common functions, and now I've got to create and maintain a duplicate one, or else redo *all* our scripts to use [ and ], rather than { and } in our case.
It would be a great idea if LoadRunner a) recorded and b) allowed in playback for a literal "{" a "\{" escape sequence (which gives "invalid escape sequence" in 10.5 anyway), and of course for "}" a "\}".
