Hi Dominic, Thanks for the reply.
Indeed it needs to be escaped but FireFox 3.5 does not seem to download the script correctly. If I change the & to be & in the generated HTML file, it then works. I do not think that the issue is with bit.ly but the browser then? Generated and not working: <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> src="http://bit.ly/javascript-api.js?version=latest&login=statsvn&apiKey=R_2c362b417d0517c27876cbaca1bb68cc";></script> Modified and working: <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> src="http://bit.ly/javascript-api.js?version=latest&login=statsvn&apiKey=R_2c362b417d0517c27876cbaca1bb68cc";></script> Any suggestion so that the html geneated by xdoc would match the second form? or another type of encoding/escaping?
