Replacing & by &???
Hello,
what can I do to replace & by & on end of the pipeline because I
need the & to build a uri with parameters but what I get ist &
I'm using the HTMLSerializer for output (and need this one).
Thank you.
Regards
Stephan

Even in HTML & should be replaced with & instead of the other way
around. Only loose browsers allowed the lazy developers to use &. So
just for building uris there is no need for replacing & with &. & is
preserved for character and entity references.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/charset.html#h-5.3.2:
"Authors should use "&" (ASCII decimal 38) instead of "&" to avoid
confusion with the beginning of a character reference (entity reference
open delimiter). Authors should also use "&" in attribute values
since character references are allowed within CDATA attribute values."

I'm not sure if this is exactly your problem, but you can try to use
& insead of & - that works for me.
