Re: Parsing un-encoded ampersand in XHTML

As I see it, the problem is that some of the & are not encoded properly, right? Just change all & to & and then change all & to &. Problem solved.

$text =~ s/&amp;/&/gi;
$text =~ s/&/&amp;/g;

Ok lets see now... This: $search_bAND prints one of these: & I want this: `&` So as I see it AND or bAND means & this is the problem. Like I said I am new to perl (not HTML) If I write `$search_b& or $search_&` the code breaks. Is there a way to change just the $search_bAND line without breaking the rest of the script?
