We are using the xsl stylesheet option in the search appliance to generate our own output from the XML. If I run a search that results in a URL that includes an ampersand in it, I get the following error message:

A semi colon character was expected. Error processing resource 'http://100.6.4.21/texis/search?pr=Hanso ... pXSL=no&qu...


<UrlDisplay>http://100.6.4.102/...owDetail.asp?vmod ... UrlDisplay>

The error is being caused by the ampersand not being converted to &. I checked the XML, and the <Url> element, which has the same ampersand, is getting converted correctly:

<Url>http://100.6.4.102/around/exteriors_new ... tID=1</Url>
<UrlDisplay>http://100.6.4.102/...owDetail.asp?vmod ... roductID=1
</UrlDisplay>

Any suggestions for getting around this?

That was fixed in 5.3.2. Use "check for updates" under "maintenance" to get the latest scripts. You might wait an hour or so as 5.4.0 will be released "any minute now".

Leslie. I need help setting up a web page using the XML feature so I can change how the page looks. I have looked on the web for XML information but need a little more. What steps do I need to do to get this working. Once I understand the steps I can take it from there.. My email is jgdoke@ra.rockwell.com If you do not have time I understand.
Thanks
