RE: [xsl] parser error with CDATA string '&a'

2008-03-01 09:23:41
I'm trying to transform an XML document that contains 
elements like this
one:

<url_download>www.example.com?var=1&a=3</url_download>

But this is what I get from Saxon 9:

SXXP0003: Error reported by XML parser: The reference to 
entity "a" must end with the ';' delimiter.

Quite so: your input must be well-formed XML, which means that it can't have
an unescaped ampersand

I already tried to wrap the content of the element in CDATA, 
like this:

<url_download><![CDATA[www.example.com?var=1&a=3]]></url_download>

Unfortunately this doesn't work too.

That one looks fine, what was the error message?
