Notepad ++ function tidy2

I have a problem with Tidy2.

I wanted to 'tidy up' my source code, that was okay but it makes an & to amp;. It advertise it.

Why and how can I change this?

You need to edit the config file for Tidy2 (which is an option in the plugin menu).

To stop Tidy2 replacing all HTML entities (such as &), include the following line:

preserve-entities: 1

If you want to just change the ampersand handling, include

quote-ampersand: no

If you check the online Tidy Documentation you will find how to set the ampersand settings:

quote-ampersand

Top Type: Boolean
Default: yes
Example: y/n, yes/no, t/f, true/false, 1/0
This option specifies if Tidy should output unadorned & characters as & amp;
