XML: ampersand in values

peacemaker · Nov 24, 2011

HI, All

How to manage with the ampersand ("&") and other special symbols (where is the full list, BTW ?) that can be included into tag's values ?

B4X:

& - &amp;
< - &lt;
> - &gt;
" - &quot;
' - '

The last one should be & # 3 9 ; (without the spaces).

I guess not HTML encoding. I mean that if in XML values found "&" - XMLSax parcer library gives error:

org.apache.harmony.xml.ExpatParser$ParseException: At line 181, column 27: not well-formed (invalid token)

UPD: THANKS ! I understand now.

For ref:
If "&" is replaced by "&" - it's recognized as "&" good by XMLsax lib.
But """ is not recognized and gives error.
