"&" char in querystring

Good Morning Everyone!
Again, i need your help Lucene comunity! 
I have a query string just like this: q="johnson & johnson" and when i use
debugQuery=true i realize that the Solrparse breaks the string exactly in
the "&" char, changing my query to q="Johnson", i would like to know, is
there any way to avoid this?

Ah... you are probably not "encoding" the & and % in your URL, so they are 
being eaten when the URL is parsed. Use % followed by the 2-digit hex ASCII 
character code. & should be %26 and % should be %25.

Hello Jack,
My the fieldtype is configured as following:

    <fieldType class="solr.TextField" name="exact_search"
positionIncrementGap="100">
      <analyzer>
        <tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.ISOLatin1AccentFilterFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
      </analyzer>
    </fieldType>

What other filter could i use to preserve the "&" char?



Another problem that came up, is when i search for ?q="0,5%" it gives an
error:
HTTP Status 400 - missing query string

Probably because of the "%" char, is there any way to escape it?

Use a field type whose analyzer preserves the &. What field type are you 
using?
