An & indicates that the text between this and the next ; is an
entity. It would be an error to have a & imply anything else.

In any case, having &amp; in your attribute shouldn't be a
problem. AFAIK, all browsers accept this. Your object (a
plug-in ??) should receive the text with the entity resolved,
I believe.
