Hi John,
It is possible but i am not sure it is working or not ....
before inset into the database we will use Single quate( '  ' ) to store the data, 
after u can access '&' symble from the database..

We have some drop down boxes in our jsp's which take
data straight from the DB. Some of those data contain
the character &. (eg John & me).
We use a javascript array to store these data for internal
use in the page. The struts format those data.
When we use these data in a drop down (html select) appears
as (John & me) which obviously does not look good.

Is there a way to avoid this from happening ?
Can we say to the struts NOT to format the data coming from
the java objects ?
