XSL will try to retrieve a value from the URL:
www.time.gov/time.asp?state=la&applysummertime=no

If this is really the case, your XSLT engine is severely broken. Which one
is it? Do you have an HTTP trace of the GET request?

...

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

Using "&". The XSLT processor should never do a GET request with the
XML-escaped ampersand, though.

I have another question:
How do I combine two variables?
Say, I have the variables; first, second, third - each with the respective
values 1, 2, 3.

How do I do something like: <xsl:value-of
select="$first$second$third"/> (in
ASP you would write >> first & second & third << to get the value "123".

select="concat($first,$second,$third)"

That way, I could, perhaps, define a variable with the value of  "&", and
use
it in the URL?

...but I'd be really surprised if this would help.
