On the contrary, you MUST change the &a to &amp; (or put it in CDATA, which
is equivalent) because otherwise the server won't be able to do anything
with it at all.

Yes, it is possible. The version you showed with CDATA looked correct. You
must have made an error somewhere else that you haven't shown us. That's why
we need to see exactly what you are doing and exactly how it fails.
