& inside an XML

#1 October 21st, 2008, 01:15 AM

I have an XML entry, inside XML entry i am inserting a hyper link
containing &, however when I compile the XML file, my application is not
being able to correctly identify the & sign in hyper link. Is there a
way by using which i can insert hyperlink with & inside xml

Seems pretty basic stuff you miss about XML,
<http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#syntax>:

Quote:

The ampersand character (&) and the left angle bracket (<) MUST NOT
appear in their literal form, except when used as markup delimiters,
or within a comment, a processing instruction, or a CDATA section.
If they are needed elsewhere, they MUST be escaped using either
numeric character references or the strings "&" and "<"
respectively...
