VLM Webinterface breaks down, because of illegal Characters in XML File /unescaped URL

You can feed VLM (via Telnet) with URLs containing Characters like ampersand (&) for example "mms://my.stream.com/test.wma?some=parameter&more=parameters". VLM Webinterface will break down, because VLM generates an XML File(http://127.0.0.1:8080/requests/vlm.xml) containing exactly this URL ( section). Because of the unescaped ampersand (&) in the URL, the XML file is invalid and the Browser will stop the javascript loading the VLM webinterface-->no streams and schedules are show.

-->URL must somehow be escaped before being inserted in XML file
