{bb} "ampersand" character translated to "underscore" : any way to disable this with bb1.9e?

[flevesque@viamichelin.com]

Hello there,

I am using BigBrother-1.9e with bbgen-2.15 and bb-cacti.pl-0.2.
My installation works fine, and launched in debug mode, the bb-cacti.pl
script returns as expected in BBOUT a HTML content with correct URLs
including the "&" character, like for instance :

      ...
      <a href='http://zanzibar/cacti/graph.php?local_graph_id=7&rra_id=all'
target='_blank'>
      ...

But BigBrother displays the HTML result replacing the "&" character with
the "_" one.

I read in the archives of BB's support that I had to recompile BigBrother
with the -DNOTAMP option.
In the $BBHOME/src/Makefile, I found the following comments:

      #################################################################
      # BB LOCAL COMPILE TIME FLAGS
      #################################################################
      # -DDEBUG               DUMP TRACE CODE IN BBOUT
      # -DZOMBIE              PREVENT ZOMBIE PROCESS CREATION
      # -DREGEXEC             USE PROPER REG EXPR LIBRARY CODE
      # -DREGEX
      # -DRE_EXEC
      # -DTIMEH               THIS OS CAN HANDLE time.h
      # -DGETTIMEOFDAY        ADD STATS TO TEST (NEEDS gettimeofday())
      # -DSIGSETJMP
      #
      # AS WELL AS THE PRECEEDING FLAGS
      # USE BBFLAGS FOR -g, -pg AND OTHER STANDARD COMPILER OPTIONS.
      # (THAT'S BECAUSE CFLAGS GETS REWRITTEN)

No "-DNOTAMP" mentionned here, but I tried anyway by adding it to the
BBFLAGS definition :

      BBFLAGS= -DNOTAMP ${BBDEFS} -g

Then I dit a make and make install, relaunched BigBrother, but I still have
the & translation problem.

Have I done anything wrong?
Is it still possible to disable the & character translation in bb 1.9e ?
Any clue?

Thank in advance you for your help,


Franck.
