Handling "&" in select tag user value (v2023)

[sclg]

I have a select tag where one of the user values is L&G
However, the & is getting changed to its HTML entity and what actually gets put in the database field is L&G

How do I get round this??

Thanks

You may set the field object's Raw property as true. For v2024, you may simply use the RemoveXSS Extension.

Thanks. Presumably using something like $this->MyField->Raw = true
but in what server event?

You may use Page_Load server event.
