[GeoNetwork-users] special sign "&"

Hallo,

I´m migrating data from a projects database to geonetwork 2.1 using a
postgresql database...
There are charackters like the "&"-sign in the datasets. GN seems not to
accept the "&" sign in a string like the "title". "%" for example works.
Also have problems with other characters like "é" or "ä". I checked the
postgres database it is set to utf8. GN displays this charckters in a very
strange way é = é. Has anybody a solution for this problem.

best regards

Is this an issue with the special semantics of '&' in XML? If the stylesheets for display are outputting XHTML, perhaps the funny rendering is occurring there?

Hallo and thank you for answering.
There is a difference between é and the &-sign. While GN displays the é
"only" wrong, it does not accept the xml file if there is the &-sign in a
string at all.
