'&' is an illegal character in an XML file. Just replace it by & , such as in HTML.

i really wonder where it comes from... i'm sure i've replaced those &'s in the english country file

Is the problem not caused further back?
In your country_eng
line 118 and 122 you have two teams with & in it.

your game code must then save these as xml

So either it needs to add "amp" to all "&" it finds as it saves

or

we ensure there are no "&" in country files.

Which would you prefer?

this is what i don't understand at all. i though i've eliminated those a long time ago

we ensure there are no "&" in country files.

this one seems to be the easier solution. there aren't a lot of teams with &'s anyway (only the two in the english file).

the country file is updated now in the cvs and the ampersands are removed.
