It's not valid XML, that's what's wrong with it. & denotes an entity and XML
knows only three entities on its own: " < and >. But your "XML"
contains entities such as &CollapseView or &ExpandView (and it's missing the
; to end those). If those were supposed to be ampersands you need to encode
them.

Hi KR

You have URLs in your document containing Query Strings, where name value
pairs are encoded as name=value&name=value...

As Jerry says, you need to escape ampersand characters as &
