Link to ASCII characters:

Jim, if you are trying to write the ampersand character to output with a Struts <bean:write/>, make sure the string is not filtered. By default, Struts filters special characters. So, for instance, if your string is "name=value&name=value", and if you write this with a bean like <bean:write name="xyz" property="abc"/> (and abc is storing the before mentioned string), the output will be name=value&amp;name=value. If you set the filter attribute to false, the ampersand character literal will be written to output: <bean:write name="xyz" property="abc" filter="false"/> will output name=value&name=value. 

Hope this helps.

Laura:

No, I'm looking to insert the ampersand symbol into my string with the use
of the escape sequence. I've tried the &amp; and \& to no affect. There is
plenty of HTML examples but this is just straight characters parced through 
a resource bundle from a properties file.

       Hi:

       ...back to the resource file again. I'm trying to print the
ampersand symbol (&) to a screen but it's coming up weird. Does anyone know 
the Escape Sequence for this character?
