RE: XSL, Escaping, undocumented?

XSL will try to retrieve a value from the URL: 
www.time.gov/time.asp?state=la&applysummertime=no
 - which, of course, is invalid to ASP. ASP is not supposed 
to convert the URL. The browser is the only device that 
converts content, that is, XML, HTML etc.

The question is, more directly: How do I put a & in an URL, 
that I can pass to the document() function.

When you write & in the URL in your stylesheet, it is converted by
the XML parser to "&", so the URL that is passed to the document
function is indeed 

 www.time.gov/time.asp?state=la&applysummertime=no

I can't see why this isn't working.
