xmlParseEntityRef: no name in Chrome and Safari

Hi ALL!
I faced with issue of component rich:pickList in browsers Chrome and Safari.
It seems like a problem with escaping.
Code snippet:

<rich:pickList showButtonsLabel="false" disabled="true"
 listsHeight="20em"
 sourceListWidth="20em"
 targetListWidth="20em"
 listClass="rich-picklist-nomargin" >
 <f:selectItem itemLabel="P & G" />
</rich:pickList>

The browsers complain:

error on line XXX at column YYY: xmlParseEntityRef: no name

I've tried different combinations of attributes itemLabel and escape in the tag f:selectItem without success.
Is this a bug or is there any solution?

Thanks in advance.

you could check that richfaces-demo sample works. try please to use:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd" >

I've just tried it without success.

Also I found inaccuracy in my post.
The tag

<f:selectItem itemLabel="P & G" />

is actually

<f:selectItem itemLabel="P & G" />
.
