RE: XML Special Characters


No, you don't.  An '&' by itself in an XML file is an error; it must be
escaped as '&'.  That is why you are seeing 'brad&bill'.  Is there
some reason why you think this is a problem, or are you just examining XML
with your eyeballs?

Subject: [xsl] XML Special Characters


Hi,

I was wondering if anyone can help me with what should be a simple issue: I
need to output an '&' in my XML file, but have been only able to do this by
escaping it like &. This means that my output is brad&bill rather
than brad&bill. Can someone please help me get this result using a
validating parser?

Thanks,
