so presumably $l_TempString does not contain a substring that matches
either "&" or "&amp;".

so what is $l_TempString  ? ie what does <xsl:value-of
select="$l_TempString"/> produce.

It's always helpful to post a complete xml input and complet xslt
stylesheet (in this case, each only need be two or three lines long,
