Re: [xsl] Problems with &/& in style sheet

[George Cristian Bina <george@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Marcel,

If you set the output/@method to html you should get & in the output.
If you want to keep the xml method then one workaround will be to add 
the script content inside a comment (from my limited html knowledge I 
remember that scripts inside comments work):
<xsl:template match="myTemplate">
  <script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
  <xsl:comment>
    if ("" != document.forms[1].file.value) {
    document.forms[1].action = "./ServletUpload?fc=<xsl:value-of
select="@fc"/>&amp;fn=<xsl:value-of select="@fn"/>";
[...]
  </xsl:comment>
  </script>
</xsl:template>

Hope that helps,
George
