Vugen: Replace Special Characters
This function (called EncodeText) may be a bit out of date, but can be used to replace special characters and use different encoding. You could put this in the very top of the vuser_init section of your script, or in the globals.h or other include file.

Web Click and Script actually works!
On my latest engagement, I needed a web script to go with all of the Citrix scripts I am creating. The web script was giving me some issues with correlation and NT authentication, so I decided to give Web Click and Script a try. I didn't have much expectation since neither I nor my colleagues have been able to get it to work in the past, but I thought that it would be worth a try in 9.5. Imagine my surprise when it actually worked! This could partly be because the javascript is minimal. That seems to be where C&S hangs.

Vugen: Measure transaction timings in milliseconds
Let's say you are testing a web application and the service level agreement of response times for each web page is 1.5 seconds or below. You might want to automatically fail any transaction that comes back in a longer amount of time. You will need to measure the number of milliseconds in the transaction, and see exceeds this amount.
