Ok, I wrongly explained me : I mixed the url in the html and the url that
is displayed in the adress bar in my explanation.

My problem is to go to the http://foo&bar page so (you are 100% right) to
have a "http://foo&bar"; link in my html.

But the thing is in fact that, when I put "http://foo&bar"; in my
navigation.xml, I got a "http://foo&bar"; in my html : the entity is
escaped a second time during the parsing.
And of course putting a "http://foo&bar"; in my xml file make the parser
turn angry.

Is it clearer ?
