title: SAXParser '&' concatenation problem
body: <p>I am presently using SAXParser with SAXParserFactory, and I have run into a problem with strings being cuttoff at '&amp;' symbols. For example: "Nation Created Our World &amp; everything in it" becomes "everything in it". </p>
  
  <p>Obviously, I dont want this to happen. In the xml input, the character is properly escaped as <code>&amp;amp;</code>. How can I resolve this?</p>
  
  <pre><code>try{
              SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
              SAXParser sp = spf.newSAXParser();
  
              /* Get the XMLReader of the SAXParser we created. */
              XMLReader r = sp.getXMLReader();
  
              //This handles the xml and populates the entries array
              XMLHandler handler = new XMLHandler();
  
  
              // register event handlers
              r.setContentHandler(handler);
              String url = "http://foobar.xml";
              r.parse(url);
  
              return handler.getEntries();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have this in my DefaultHandler class</p>
  
  <pre><code>....
      public void characters( char ch[], int start, int length ){
             String value = new String( ch , start , length );
  
             if(!value.trim().equals("")) {
  
                 if( currentElement.equalsIgnoreCase("TITLE") ) {
                     tempEntry.setTitle(value);
                 }
  ....
  </code></pre>
