Hi, I am hoping someone can answer the following question it seems when
I put in an & in the query string to be translated as the link in the
XML to HTML I get an error, just using the ? mark is fine but one I add
additional paramaters to the XML it gives an error... any ideas? Below
are the details. Thanks in advance for your help with this.

I have the following XML


XML
===========

<file>
<display
href='xml_display.cgi?file=xdo_avail_row_counts.xm l&xsl=dqm_general.xsl'>xdo
avail row counts</display>
</file>

STLYE SHEET
================

for some reason the following block of code in IE gives the following
error

<a>
<xsl:attribute name="href"><xsl:text/>
<xsl:value-of select="@href" />
</xsl:attribute>

<xsl:attribute name="style"><xsl:text/>
<xsl:value-of select='"text-decoration:none"' />
</xsl:attribute>

<font color="blue" face="arial"><xsl:value-of select="text()"
/></font>
</a>

ERROR
=============
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error
and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

your input is not well formed &'s must be quoted, eg as &amp; in XML
element and attribute content.
