Jan Stüber: Solution 1: Remove the ampersand.
Solution 2: Encode the ampersand (that is replace the ‘&’ character with ‘&’ ). Remember to Decode when reading the XML text.
Solution 3: Use CDATA sections (text inside a CDATA section will be ignored by the parser.) eg. <![CDATA[some text & some more text]]>
