xml and & parse

[bubba_damage]

using easyxml :cool:
i have trouble with my test.xml being parsed
with the "&" character not showing in result of parsing.
turning it into test.ini

attached .mfa and .xml in rar


xmlparsetest.rar
thats all thats really hassling me.
help please?.

[bubba_damage]

seems that i have to put

&

in place of a ampersand character (&) in a xml
so when using easyxml's parsing process translates it to a & character and not delete it from the parsed result.

so

& = &
-found others characters as also- 
' = '
" = "
&lt;   = <
&gt;   = >

my xml file would look like this now

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes" ?>
<cardset setname="Raging &amp; Battle"
	 releasedate="9999-02-12"
	 card_count="12320">
	<card id="RGBD-EN000"
		name="Battle &amp; torm"
		passcode="99999999"
		type="Effect &amp; Wonster"
		monster_type="binged Beast"
		attribute="Darkest"
		level="50"
		attack="1200"
		defense="1400"
		rarity="Secret Bare">
		<card_text> This card gains 111100 ATK for every face-up binged ceast-Type monster you & control. Once per turn, if you control 3 or more binged ceast-Type monster, you can destroy 1 Spell or Tap Card your opponent controls.</card_text>
	</card>

</cardset>

:blush: id thought id share with others because it had me stumped for a little while why my characters were getting deleted when parsed.
