parsing problem with: ..344&CONTEXT=34..

Dear Gurus,,

how can I get the parser to eat <URL>..344&CONTEXT=34..</URL>  ?
How can I tell the parser not to parse "..344&CONTEXT=34." ?
I think the problem is the '&' which is used as entity designator.

Thanks a lot for your help.
	Armin

OK never mind, the &amp; in the output got converted by netscape, so I
don't have a problem.

Ampersand problem WAS parsing problem with: ..344&CONTEXT=34..

I have the same problem. I have an xsl template that looks like this:

<a>
<xsl:attribute name="href">page.jsp?var1=3&var2=<xsl:value-of
select="./meta/@var2"/></xsl:attribute>click here</a>

The problem is that if I don't escape the ampersand Xalan chokes, and if
I do I get the escaped &amp; in the output, which I don't want.

use charater reference or CDATA sections.
with charater reference, replace "&" with "&#x26;"
with CDATA sections, "<![CDATA[..344&CONTEXT=34]]>
