RE: Converting & to & in HTML output...

[Derek Hohls]

Actually, disable-output-escaping  works just fine ;-)

 

I tried Michal's solution and (a) I now get & in the HTML and

(b) my SVG file is called and loaded correctly.

 

HTML *might* be OK with & in general, but it certainly

wasn't happy in the specific case I mention below; this might

be a browser specific problem (?)... as always I adopt the

"engineering" approach which says that "if it works, leave

well enough alone and ponder the mysteries of it later -

preferably over a nice cold beer!"

 

 

<sigh> end of year and my energies are low now....

that will not work.  disable-output-escaping is disabled in cocoon - search
the archives on dev and users for the reasoning.  There is a processing
instruction that can do this (search the archives again) but it could have
hidden problems.

Are you sure you need to?  HTML is ok with &amp; everywhere you'd need it.
That said, I did have a problem once with a log processor bombing
(improperly) on querystrings using &amp; instead of &.
