    Umbraco not converting characters to xml valid characters in 4.6.1

    When using for example the '&' character in a textstring property the character does not get converted to &.

    It seems to be in other places also, not just the TextString datatype. When getting the xml for /root it is complaining about "Look & Feel" in the following row.

    <faqQuestion id="1061" parentID="1060" level="4" writerID="0" creatorID="0" nodeType="1057" template="1054" sortOrder="0" createDate="2009-01-09T12:48:36" updateDate="2010-11-15T13:34:33" nodeName="Look & Feel" urlName="look-feel" writerName="Administrator" creatorName="Administrator" path="-1,1048,1059,1060,1061" isDoc="">

    The xml created by umbraco is not valid anymore because of this.

    Hmm can't reproduce this one, is it also the case in the /app_data/umbraco.config file ?

    Nope, in the umbraco.config file the nodeName is displayed with &amp;, but not when I get the xml in umbraco. There the character remains as a '&' which results in invalid xml for me all over. Very strange.

    Had to downgrade back to Umbraco 4.5.2. Did not get the locator package to work, the xml remained invalid. Everything else seemed to work fine.
