Subject: nokogiri xpath query with text containing "&amp;"

Hi all,

I am trying to run some xpath queries on a XML file. But it seems
nokogiri can not handle texts containing &amp; values.

here is an example, second line prints nothing. if i change &amp; to
something else in both xml and xpath expression, i get the values i
expect.

How can i query xpath expressions with XML excapes.

file_xml = Nokogiri::XML File.open(file_configurable)
print
file_xml.xpath("//Match[text()='value1&amp;value2']/../Value").text.to_s

thanks everyone.
