this is almost certainly a mistake in the input and if you have control
over the generation of these files, you should fix the generator to
produce
<NODE n="1" url="url1" visible_url="url2?escape&amp;chars"></NODE>

It's almost always a bad idea to use d-o-e in any case.



you need to replace &amp; by &, in XSLT2, you could use

select="replace(@visible_url,'&amp;amp;',' &amp;')"

in XSLT1 you could use one of the many replace templates posted to this
list, or the faq to do the same transformation.
