Escaping curly braces in XML

<node>http://test.com?test={{0}}</node>

But it didn't

& #123; Left curly brace            { //--------------> Left Side
//---------------------------------------------------------------//              |
& #125; Right curly brace           } //--------------> Right Side

This should be a nice one to save and save for later. I've got this saves in .pdf and stored in my iBooks on the phone.

**The ampersand has been spaced from the code so it can display in a row here. The Space will need to be removed between the ampersand and the pound sign for it to work. **

Curly brackets should be escaped only when inside attributes of an XSLT.

You shouldn't need to escape the } character. See this question for the characters that need escaped in XML.
