Title:
  print "&lang=" does not print the expected string --- workaround

Status in Sikuli:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  *** workaround ***
  see comment #2
  use instead:

  x = "a string that contains &xxxx; elments (e.g. &lang=)"
  print x.replace('&', '&') # & is unicode repr. of & (chr(38))

  ---------------------------------------------
  I am setting a text constant to langtype = "&lang=". This and other text constants are being concatenated to form an html address that I paste into a Chrome address bar. It wasn't working, so I added a print command to see what Sikuli was doing. It is changing this constant to a box character, as if it doesn't understand the constant. I've tried moving the constant to the beginning and end of the text; it doesn't seem to matter.
  What's really odd is that I am concatenating a language string so my page loads in a different language each time. I have these languages stored in an array. The first language loads ok, but the second loads the previous language. The print shows me each time that Sikuli is using a box instead of the text.
  I'm on Sikuli X-1.0rc2, on a 32bit Windows XP system.
  I don't get any errors. The script loads the correct language in the address the first time, but the second time through the loop, I get the first language again.
