If I may add to what Joe said..

The character data inside an element cannot contain
unescaped &. & is interpreted as begining an entity
reference(e.g. &lt, &gt etc) by the XML parser. So it
must be escaped using &

You must rectify the XML generation process, so it
must produce & instead of &.

Mukul
