Does & or & or & mean the same thing in code?

Tags:

html

wordpress

We have a client that uses a wordpress blog, when he pastes in our video embed code it changes &'s into & so for a workaround he has to re-write & as &

Does this break code? Would doing something like <code></code> in wordpress fix the issue?

Example:

<param name="adServerURL" value="http://plg.website.com/dynamic_preroll_playlist.vast2xml?domain=111aaabbb&amp;pubchannel=KidS&amp;" />

Don't is a contraction of do not, while doesn't is a contraction of does not, and they both act as auxiliary verbs. In English, don't is used when speaking in the first and second person plural and singular and the third person plural ("I," "you," "we," and "they").

Technically yes they are all the same thing. Since it's wordpress I would recommend using the &#038; as that's the encoded version of the ampersand & or &amp;.
