Marc,
CDATA does matter for _INPUT_ only - its content is not parsed. Hence &
causes a parser error, while <![CDATA[&]]> is fine. It has nothing to do with
_OUTPUT_.
Characters are escaped according to the output method or the
disable-output-escaping attribute of xsl:text or xsl:value-of elements.
To leave your ampersand unparsed and unescaped, use
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"><![CDATA[&]]></xsl:text> or
<xsl:output method="text">
Regards,
Petr
