Make <![cdata[&]]> Equal To Just "&" Not "&"

[kvnmck18]

I am building some canonical elements in an XSLT page.

<link rel="canonical" href="{$CanonicalURL}"/>

But in the source code my "&" is always "&" -- which is usually a good case but not when using a canonical.I have this code in my XSLT:

<xsl:text>http://www.kvnmck18.com/?id=</xsl:text>				  <xsl:value-of select="Page[@ID=$CononicalID]/@ID"/>				  <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="no"><![CDATA[&]]>title=</xsl:text>				  <xsl:value-of select="Page[@ID=$CononicalID]/title"/>

This will display as:

<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.kvnmck18.com/?id=1&title=Title" />

but needs to be like:

<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.kvnmck18.com/?id=1&title=Title" />

How can I do this without throwing errors in the XSLT?

Why on earth would you want to disable this even for cannonical URLs? The browser (or search engine...) will automatically convert the & to & at parsing time. If you think that the URL your users/crawlers would reach is with "&" instead of "&", you're wrong.
