Solution to Ampersand (&) issue in crosstalk and flexdashboard?

71 Views Asked by At

Ampersand (and sign) (&) turning to "&[amp;]" (I've added in square brackets so you can see it on stack overflow).

I'm using crosstalk filters in a flexdashboard.

One of the options in my crosstalk filter has an ampersand (&) in the name.

When I knit the flexdashboard, the "&" comes out as "&[amp;]" in the crosstalk filter. Therefore the data in the graph and table does not link up. Does anyone know how to make it come out just as "&"?

Example:

"A&Eel pool" turns to "A&[amp;]Eel pool"
