  What is the normal behaviour when you specify special 
  character value in attribute value ?

There aren't really any special characters in XML, all characters are
normal. If you put a character in an attribute value then you get that
character (except for newlines which you get as &'10;)

The exception is if you are doing the html output method, and writing an
html attribute that is a URI (a href= or <img src= then that attribute
is URL encoded (using %ab hex quotes)

If your system is URL encoding the value attribute then it should not be
doing that and you should report it.
