XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location: http://www.xxxxxxxxxx.co.uk/
Line Number 217, Column 48:Text containing an & some where
-------------------------------------------^Does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this?
Any help greatly appreciated.Pnub

I think you have to be a little more specific about the nature of the page in question. Is it a form? The broswer would normally escape any ampersands in the form data, so this is a little puzzling.

No, it's not a form, it's just in an ArticlePage.

This is a content issue being thrown by your browser (not SilverStripe), your page is being generated with an XHTML doctype but the content being generated isn't fully compliant. It should be outputting the html entity instead of a raw ampersand

Firefox 3.5 and IE 8 will both choke on this. You need to fix the markup or change your doctype to HTML transitional, unless anyone has a better solution?
