escaping xml xslt
if & character appears in the XML then it is supposed to be not a welformed XML. You can not proceed to XSL solution without sorting out the & character in the XML. I think you should check up the code that
forms the XML file and make sure that characters like & , > , < , " , ' are replaced with &amp; , &gt; &lt;, &quot; and &apos; respectively..
or..
You have another option.. if you think that some element in the XML may have characters like this, then you put these characters under CDATA Section
in your case..
<Comments>
<![CDATA[
Comments about loss description: Adding some comments
here & testing the section
]]>
</Comments>
Then you can simply finish off the task by writing <xsl:value-of select="Comments"/> in XSL

The & is a character that could be entered by the user, I have no control
over what they enter.  It is a dynamic process.  I need to tell the XML
parser to treat any text entered by the user as text.

		| How do I set this up so <Comments> sections display text
and
