xml=variable not used correctly from within krpano

Hello Klaus, All,

I found out the following with Krpano:

I am embedding the krpano.swf file from within a HTML page without javascript and/or whatsoever. Please don't mention using any other embedding method: I need only html and no more than that.
When I specify the following xml= variable, it is skipping the rightmost part of the url (behind the &), which is a perfectly valid HTTP URI/link:

<param name="flashvars"value="xml=http://someserver.somedomain:8080/panocms/generate_xml.php?panoid=1&edit=1">

and

<embed pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"                 height="100%" width="100%" allowFullScreen="true"                 src="pano.swf" flashvars="xml=http://someserver.somedomain:8080/panocms/generate_xml.php?panoid=1&edit=1" /> </object>

The swf file is loading, the XML file is fetched... But: when I look at my HTTP server logs, the url minus the &edit=1 part is fetched.
Thus:

[someip] - - [some date] "GET /panocms/generate_xml.php?panoid=1 HTTP/1.1" 200 1247

Here I would like to see the url <snip>?panoid=1&edit=1

Please advise if this is a bug and then, please, fix it or tell me a work around...

Thx!

Jaap

Well, I already found out that the "xml=" parameter should be "escape coded".
Thus I replaced the & sign with %26
Why is this needed? Some kind of Flash/Action script artifact?!
