set p=ab^&de

and it works as expected. But if instead of <b>abcde </b>I have a string with &amp;&nbsp;inside, <br />

<pre><code id="code-10-28513828-2">set p=ab&amp;de
call :mysub %p%
exit /b
:mysub
echo %1</code></pre>
it does not work, as I understand because &amp;&nbsp;is interpreted as escape character. I tried to put various numbers of ^ before &amp;&nbsp;in line 1, but nothing works. <br />

How to get it to work so parameter %1 gets the actual string ab&amp;cd ?
