How to escape ampersand?
510477Oct 14 2008 — edited Oct 14 2008I have a gigantic PL/SQL content region that due to its size is getting broken up into sections with each section becoming an individual stored procedure. The report is in HTML, and the format is tables within the larger table. Proper HTML coding says to put a non-breaking space ( ) into blank cells. The problem is that when I go to try and compile the code, the compiler interprets the ampersand(&) as a call to an input variable - regardless of where it is in a quoted string. This applies for any other HTML quick codes.
I have tried designating it as a string, and then it just prompts me during variable declaration. Can anyone help me out here?
