James,
Tedd's response is spot on, but if you're reading it through a webbrowser you
may not be able to see what he's getting at, as the browser is likely to
"interpret" rather than display the literal text he typed ... HTML wins again!!
Eiither view the source of Tedd's response and search for "instead of" or
Google "HTML Entities ampersand" ...
Cheers,
John
