Vijay,
What's wrong with "Special Terms & Liabilities"? isn't it displaying
properly?
My guess is that disable-output-escaping is simply not supported in XT (was
it Mike K. who suggested that? Jeni?). In which case if you *really* have
to have it, switching processors may be in order. It is worthwhile trying
another processor just to test your code in any case.
But first I'd check to see whether the output you get now doesn't display
just fine. It is, after all, correct HTML and the way it *should* be done.
A plain '&' may display in some browsers, but it's illegal HTML (since in
HTML, as in XML, the & is the open markup delimiter for entity references).
Good luck,
Wendell
