FAQ.

Although HTML user agents allow unescaped ampersands in href attributes,
it is technically incorrect. You really want

agenda.asp?action=del;amp&id=2

(try it in a document. it works.)
Any of the following will work for your situation:

<a href="agenda.asp?action=del;amp&amp;id={ID}">click</a>

<a href="{concat('agenda.asp?action=del;amp&amp;id=',ID)}">click</a>

<a>
  <xsl:attribute name="href">agenda.asp?action=del;amp&amp;id=<xsl:value-of select="ID"/></xsl:attribute>
</a>

<a>
  <xsl:attribute name="href">
    <xsl:value-of select="concat('agenda.asp?action=del;amp&amp;id=',ID)"/>
  </xsl:attribute>
</a>

<a>
  <xsl:attribute name="href">
    <xsl:text>agenda.asp?action=del;amp&amp;id=</xsl:text>
    <xsl:value-of select="ID"/>
  </xsl:attribute>
</a>
