Amperstands in text


i doing testing of cf pages developed , ran across problem i've not seen discussed. pulling information database , have found there amperstands in data i'm displaying (a company name johnson & johnson, example). page displays ok in ie, doesn't validate when using validator @ w3.org.

my questions these: should care these pages won't validate? might there browsers wouldn't display information correctly? if so, should doing replace(myfield,"&", "&", "all") everytime display text field in case data contains amperstand?

browse page firefox. ok?
