Hi gurus, I have a question on entities. The input document to my XSLT contains one element <description>Hansel & Gretel</description> After the XSLT transformation, it works fine <outputDescription>Hansel & Gretel</outputDescription> Perfect. Once I pass this resulting XML to an custom xpath extension function that converts this xml to string, the output contains <outputDescription>Handle &amp; Gretel</outputDescription> Note the extra amp; The xpath extension function does nothing but write the xml content onto a java StringWriter object. Is it an issue with the serializer ? Or is it an acceptable behaviour? Any clues on how to prevent the second amp; to appear in the string output ? i.e. once I write it to a string, the value should be <outputDescription>Hansel & Gretel</outputDescription> regards, Ram -- Shift to the left, shift to the right!
