thank you, i understand now...
but unfortunately i cannot use that, cause im using javascript and 
HTML dynamic options (eg select1.options = new Option ('',''); )
using a pre-loaded list of data. Those data have &amp inside,
so there is nothing i can do on the matter, instead of creating
a javascript function to dynamically replace &amp with &.

I wanted to avoid this option, but its the only option i have.

Thanks anyway for the tips.. John
