Description

In my project we are using Xerces-C++ Prser for parsing the XML files.

Now, if my XML file contains a string say

<Name>There are 2 friends Amit & Rahul</Name>

after parsing the the string gets truncated to '& Rahul'

Thinking that is is a problem with '&' I tried using '#' but this also did not help.

Can you please tell as to how can i get the XML(with '&') to be parsed sucessfully.

Thanks in Advance!
