XUpdate and the '&' character

[Jonathan R. Thorpe]

Hi!   I’m attempting to use XUpdate to update a node in our Xindice database and I’m having the following problem:   I’m using the following XUpdate:   <xu:modifications version="1.0" xmlns:xu="http://www.xmldb.org/xupdate">              <xu:update select="//RootNode/TestNode">http://myserver.cgi?parameter1=mine&parameter2=0</xu:update> </xu:modifications>   to update the contents of the node TestNode.  When I query the database to see whether the update has been successful I find that the node text has been truncated from  the ‘&’  onwards i.e. it has been updated to  http://myserver.cgi?parameter1=mine and not http://myserver.cgi?parameter1=mine&parameter2=0 as expected.   I’ve tried replacing the ‘&’ with ‘&amp;’ in the XUpdate query to see if that makes any difference…and it doesn’t!   Can anybody suggest a way that I can update this node successfully?   Thanks in advance,   Jonathan Thorpe Sony BPRL Basingstoke UK ------------------------ ************************************************************************* The information contained in this message or any of its attachments may be privileged and confidential and intended for the exclusive use of the addressee.
