[xsl] ampersand character in xsl attribute?

Hi all, I'm a newbie to the list, so I apologize if this has been answered before. I've been searching everywhere for a solid answer on this. Is it true that it's impossible to have a stylesheet ouptut an "&" character when inside an attribute? For example, I have a URL that includes an ampersand as part of a query string -- not the entity -- and I can get this to print out just fine when doing a simple <xsl:value-of>, but when it's inside an <xsl:attribute> or even when I hold it in a variable and do <A HREF="{$foo}">, it always prints out &. I've tried disable-output-escaping with no luck. Very frustrating... I realize it's "bad HTML" to not use &, but since this is for an HTML version of a newsletter, I don't trust that email clients will convert the URL correctly. Not sure who's bright idea it was to make the beginning character of an entity, an entity itself :) Thanks!
