When I type "&" character in textbox, application crashes/closes. All other keys are working properly.

When I type "&" character in textbox, application crashes/closes. All other keys are working properly.

Hello,

I have simple text box(type="text") on the page. When I try to type an ampersand character using a keyboard,the application crashes/closes.

I tried removing the Jquerymobile js file and then the "&" gets properly typed in using the keyboard. This issue is present for "&" keyboard key only. Checked in android 2.2 and 4.0 devices.

Tried changing the type of textbox to url too,however it did not work. I tried using latest jquery.mobile-1.1.1.js with phonegap, but it is not working.

Note that I can type an "&" in simulators without any issue in textbox. The issue is present when I try to enter "&" on android device.

Request to please help me regarding this issue.

Regards.
