problem with & conversion string_to

Hello

When I want to convert a string (which is like an xml document) in a document JDOM, I have a problem when there is a &.

Must I need to convert & by & in the string or SAXbuilder can do it? How can i do ?

the exemple

String toto = "<root><footer>TO&TO</footer></root>";

SAXBuilder builder = new SAXBuilder();

Document doc = builder.build(new StringReader(toto));

Element eltTmp = doc.getRootElement();

System.out.println(eltTmp.getChildText("footer"));

org.jdom.input.JDOMParseException: Error on line 1: La référence à l'entité "TO" doit se terminer par le délimiteur ';'.

at org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder.build(SAXBuilder.java:466)

at org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder.build(SAXBuilder.java:849)
