XML to HTML Character Escaping

[Colin]

I've got an xsl stylesheet transforming an xml file into html. It works
fine, including using <xslutput mode="html"> to control the style of
output.

My problem is that I need to output an href value which contains an
ampersand. i.e. something like:

<A HREF="page.asp?value1=Hello&value2=World">

The output always has the & replaced with &amp; which I of course don't
want. I've tried all sorts including a script function to build the string
and using a CDATA section containing the & but the & still gets changed.

Any ideas?

Hi,
Try using 38 instead of &amp; it is the numeris value for ampersand.
