javaws.log

My company recently introduced a session cookie containing two values connected
by an ampersand. When loading our application interface, IcedTea-web reports
"<argumenetx: Read Error: Could not read or parse the JNLP file. (Invalid XML
document syntax. (XML Parse Exception during parsing of a jnlp element at line
123: Unknown or invalid entity: &</argument>"

The Oracle-provided javaws does not have any problem with the JNLP file and
opens our application without complaint.
