equal sign in value portion of xml tag

I am building an xml document to represent a url request. Some urls
contain d equal signs appended to the url. Its important I preserve
the equal sign in hte xml document. However, my parser is giving me
errors when attempting to parse this document.

<url>http://www.whatever.co m/techexec/techout.nsf/home.htm?openfo rm&login=1</url>

How can I use an equal sign in value part of an element as original
text?

thanks

I don't think it is the = sign, it is the ampersand &, you need to
escape that in XML as
&amp;
It shouldn't hurt you if you transform the <url>...</url> element to
some HTML
<a href="...">

Hey guys, I am using MySQL 4.0.18 and I have a field named "order_datetime" in which I store data in the format 20041001 23:00:00 (for example Oct 1, 2004 11pm) When I do a select statement to find dates in a given range, the result set never includes records that have the ending date. For example, if my SQL statement is

Hello All, Which one is an expensive operation? '>' or '==" ? I know this won't matter much. However, if I'm executing this operation million times, I would prefer the better choice.

I coulda sworn I was given an explanation during an AppDev class years ago for VB6, but don't recall the answer. Why is it that -1 is True in Visual Basic (and now VB.NET)? Bit flags seem like they should always be 0 or 1 to me... (not that I haven't used VB long enough by now to know better). Sorry to pester, but "why is -1 = true?" is a difficult thing to Google!

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
