title: Specifying special/reserved characters in android textview xml
body: <p>Hallo,</p>
  
  <p>Anyone know how to specify 'special' or 'reserved' characters for a TextView object in the xml?</p>
  
  <p>What I want to display in my text view is ?/? so I put:</p>
  
  <pre><code>android:text="?/?"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but although this displays correctly in the eclipse 'Graphical Layout' of the xml file, it gives an error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'text' with value '?/?')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>"&amp;#63;&amp;#47;&amp;#63;"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but the error is the same.</p>
  
  <p>TIA,</p>
