c# & character problem

I have a C# asp.net project in which I create meta keywords
dynamically. I have a problem with "&" character. When the page is
rendered, the "&" character is converted into "&". Is there any
way to stop this? Any help with this issue will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

There's no need to stop it. & is the HTML code for the ampersand
character, and that is how browsers interpret it.

Hi kevin, thanks for your reply. Probably I did not explain this
correctly. I don't want &amp; in meta tags keywords and description.
I don't know how the search engines will interpret this. Thats my
concern. Do you have any suggestions?

I have a basic understanding of this, so forgive me if I am overly simplistic in my explanation of my problem.. I am trying to get a Java/Xalan transform to pass through a numeric character reference (i.e.  ) and it seems to be converting the character to its UNICODE representation. Take this source XML document: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

http:/ / aquaticcreationsnc . com/lib/php/test.php Remove the spaces to visit the link above... The w3 validator identifies the ampersand character as the leading character for special character sequences. And as such, all ampersands should be converted to &amp; when employed as part of a URI. So I configured that manually, for my own parameters. However, I think what I'm seeing here with the validator, is that the validator does not...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
