Of course, Nick.  First, I write an HTML file like the attached one,
which already has an OrgTbl table and the markers describing where it is
going to be output.  Then I enable orgtbl-mode, I place the cursor over
the table and press C-c C-c.  The table is output in HTML between the
markers.

The problem is that "foo&bar" in the original table gets exported as
"foo&bar", when it should be exported as "foo&bar" to avoid spoling
the HTML code.

I hope it's clear enough this time. :)
