I am working on a rtf file which displays data based on an xml source file. XML Source File:

...
<XMLElement>Something</XMLElement>
...

In the rtf file, I have a checkbox that I want to check for a specific value.

For example, if I want the box to be checked if value = 'Something', I use the following condition in BI Publisher properties tab of the checkbox (which works):

<?XMLElement='Something'?>

My question is: How can I do this if the value from the XML contains a single quotation mark ( ' ) For example, you can replace string 'Something' with string 'I don't know'

<XMLElement>Don&apos;t know</XMLElement>

PS: I cannot alter the XML file and i have to do this in the rtf template.

Thanks!

Have you tried:
<?XMLElement="I don't know"?>

I've found that some of the code can use either single- or double-quotes.

For example, we have a fully-functioning report that has been in production for some time in which you can find the following statements (some details changed for security):

<?when: XMLElement != "ABC"?>  
<?if:$p_BusUnitCode != "XYZ"?>
