[xsl] What is %26 doing in my HTML?

[Zack Brown <zbrown at tumblerings dot org>]

Hi folks,

I'm seeing my '&'s translated into '%26' when producing HTML output.
I asked about this before, but maybe I didn't compose my question
properly. My source file looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<kc><section archive="&amp;">&amp;</section></kc>

my xsl file looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html" encoding="iso-8859-1"/> 
<xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="section">
<a href="{@archive}"><xsl:value-of select="@archive"/></a>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The output I'm seeing is

[zbrown] ~/work/KT/source/xslt/tmp$ xsltproc names.xsl 1.xml 
<a href="%26amp;">&amp;</a>
[zbrown] ~/work/KT/source/xslt/tmp$ 

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Zack
