FULL PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
------------------------            
Unable to play assets from Video Search Results web page
when the asset name contains one or more of the characters
 + & # " %
Also the HTML is not coded to properly handle characters
 < > & "
The proper way to encode special characters in a URL is to
use HEX encoding.  Thus
 <a href="/vs_public/cgi-bin/iscpfsel?VIDEOID=test#name">test#name</a>
should be
 <a href="/vs_public/cgi-bin/iscpfsel?VIDEOID=test%23name">test#name</a>
The HEX value for # is 23, + is 2B, & is 26, % is 25, < is 3C, > is 3E, " is 22
The proper way to encode special characters in a text string is to use
the symbolic name.  Thus
 <a href="/vs_public/cgi-bin/iscpfsel?VIDEOID=test&name">test&name</a>
should be
 <a href="/vs_public/cgi-bin/iscpfsel?VIDEOID=test%26name">test&amp;name</a>
The symbolic name for & is &amp; < is &lt; > is &gt; " is &quot;

IX89703 Package VideoCharger Windows Player for AIX download

The NLV versions of the VideoCharger player need to be
packaged as an AIX PTF so that customers can download
once to their local AIX server and distribute further from there.
Also fixed the following:
- Temporary file used by the plugin is written to TEMP directory
- Fix for Multicast group leave support
This is Version 2.0.2 of the VideoCharger Player
