 You can do either by using "CDATA" or "&". Both worked for me. -Hope it helps. Ram. -----Original Message----- From: Aparna Joshi [mailto:aparna.joshi@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, July 30, 2001 2:03 PM To: 'xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: : Escaping '&' in an HTML link. Hello, Here is my stylesheet (basic structure): <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:param name="address">index.jsp</xsl:param> <xsl:output method="html" indent="yes" /> <xsl:template match="AAA"> <html> <head> <title>TITLE</title> </head> <body > <form method="POST" name="index" action="{$address}"> Your request: <input type="text" name="query" size="15"></input> <input type="submit" name="go" value="GO"></input> ............ <a> <xsl:attribute name="href"> <xsl:value-of select="$address"/>?query=Edit+name+<xsl:value-of select="translate(normalize-space(groupName),' ','+')"/> </xsl:attribute> <a> ............ </form> </body > </html> </xsl:template> ....... But this link fails when it encounters a value with "&" in it e.g. Star&Bucks fails because of the '&' in between. Is there any to escape the '&' so that the URL is completely and properly formed? I tried "disable-output-escaping" but it didnot seem to work. Thanks in anticipation for any help provided.
