The CR in the parameter is a bad idea.

Instead of

put "whatever" & CR & urlencode(fld "setlist") into tInhalt

would you not be better doing

put urlencode("whatever" &CR & fld "setlist") into tInhalt


(I can't reproduce the error here, so I can't be sure if this fixes it 
or not - but the CR in the url is definitely a bad idea).
