[Wikitech-l] StripState and ampersands?

[Daniel Barrett]

I have a parser tag extension that calls $parser->insertStripItem() to add some 
text to StripState:

    function myCallback($input, $argv, $parser) {
      return $parser->insertStripState("this is a & test");
    }

When the text renders on the wiki page, however, all ampersands have been 
converted to "&":

    this is a & test

How can I prevent this conversion so ampersands (and presumably other special 
characters) are preserved?

Thanks,
DanB
