NSXMLParser problem with “&”(Ampersand) character

Question

My NSXMLParsing is not working because of \"&\" character.. my code s below .any help please ?

 NSString *myRequestString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@         


        

Answer 1

Here's what worked for me:

NSString *response = [[NSString alloc]initWithData:dataResponse encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSString *newResponse = [response stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"&:" withString:@"AND"];
NSData *dataObj = [newResponse dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

If I replaced it with symbol '&', the response would be correct, but it would throw parsing error: 68. So I had to use 'and'.
