I get the same behavior with a literal value.
option.addAttribute("value", "&blah");
if( value.equals(selected) ){
option.addAttribute("selected", "selected");
}
if(one || (first != null && last == null) ) option.setText(
encodeXML(value) );
else{
if(last != null) option.setText( encodeXML(
DOMTools.trim(rs.getString(last)) ) );
else option.setText("blah & blah");
produces an XML error with this output:
<option value="&blah">blah & blah</option>
