I'm processing an XML file and trying to get the value stored in the ProductURL attribute of a node. I'm doing this: <c:set var="value"><x:out select="@ProductURL"/></c:set> When I output the value of @ProductURL , with just x:out, I get this:
http://www.something.com?qs1=some_value&qs2=another_value (Notice how the ampersand is not escaped in the above URL generated from x:out) But when I do <c:redirect url="${value}"/> it is not working properly because , the URL stored inside value has escaped ampersands and c:redirect requires unescaped ampersands I could do this to get the unescaped URL: <c:out value="${value}" escapeXml="false"/> But, I need the unescaped url in a variable so that it can be added to the url attribute of <c:redirect url="${value}"/> --------------------------------- See the all-new, redesigned Yahoo.com.
