Description

It is not possible to escape special chars like "&" in a returned URL when you are working with additionalParams.

The following is not working

 10 = TEXT
 10 {
   typolink{
     parameter = 79
     additionalParams = &tx_indexedsearch_pi2[action]=search&tx_indexedsearch_pi2[controller]=Search
     additionalParams.stdWrap.htmlSpecialChars = 1
     returnLast = url
   }
   wrap = <form action="|" method="post" name="searchform" id="tx_indexedsearch">
  }

The generated HTML is the following

<form action="index.php?id=79&amp%3Btx_indexedsearch_pi2%5Baction%5D=search&amp%3Btx_indexedsearch_pi2%5Bcontroller%5D=Search" method="post" name="searchform" id="tx_indexedsearch">

As you see, the & is transformed to &amp - the semicolon is missing.

If you remove the htmlSpecialChars = 1 from above completly the generated HTML is 

<form action="index.php?id=79&tx_indexedsearch_pi2%5Baction%5D=search&tx_indexedsearch_pi2%5Bcontroller%5D=Search" method="post" name="searchform" id="tx_indexedsearch">

This is also not valid HTML.

Why is $this->lastTypoLinkUrl in \TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\ContentObject\ContentObjectRenderer not htmlspecialchared directly before returning? Are there any sideeffects?

I tried to test this issue on the latest master (10.0.0-dev) and these are the results:

with htmlSpecialChars = 1

<form action="/my-page?amp%3Btx_indexedsearch_pi2%5Baction%5D=search&amp%3Btx_indexedsearch_pi2%5Bcontroller%5D=Search&cHash=3e0def5a77e10e54118bad82257cadc9" method="post" name="searchform" id="tx_indexedsearch">

as you can see, the first "&" becomes just "amp"

with htmlSpecialChars =0

<form action="/my-page?tx_indexedsearch_pi2%5Baction%5D=search&tx_indexedsearch_pi2%5Bcontroller%5D=Search&cHash=dc77db77ac481385ad827619604dda7d" method="post" name="searchform" id="tx_indexedsearch">

please take note that the W3C validator https://validator.w3.org/ considers this second form valid.

Question is if you want to HSC or if you want to urlencode the additional parameters?

Hey Henrik,
I'm closing this one now due to lack of feedback. Let me know (via Slack, Chat or in this issue) if I should re-open the issue once you provide more input.
