Invalid character reference while parsing

2004-05-21 04:43:20
Hi All,
I create a text node in an xml document which might contain characters like
"&"  and <(angle brackets) to say atleast.
Now when this is parsed by xslt parser it throws an error saying

"could not parse input XML document
SAX Exception
Invalid character in reference"

what i did --
at the time of generation of node ,i look for "&" and "angle brackets" in
data and replace these characters.
then it works fine.

but i really want to know is this the best method to achieve this?
or we have any better practice?

I am using XML4J, as  XML processor, and LotusXSL as xslt parser.

Thanks & Regards
