hi there,
i'm quite confused cause putting and & into the text field of an element causes the & to be converted to &?
example:
from lxml import etree root = etree.Element('test') root.text = '&' print(etree.tostring(root)) b'<test>&</test>'
how would I turn that off?
I suppose thats not a bug... its a feature ^^
"Naked" ampersands are not allowed in XML text. '&' is the "escaped" spelling.
