Subject: special characters
I have a xml like
<a>
<a1>abcde</a1>
<a2>cdefdk</a2>
<b>
<b1>1234</b1>
<b2>here comes the special character &. You see it!! </b2>
</b>
</a>
I am transforming it using xalan.
When i try to transform, it returns "The entity name must immediately
follow the '&' in the entity reference"
How can i get rid of this? Can i not pass on the special character like
& to my resulting html????
Any help appreciated
Anand
