markers with special characters like dot

[aoreinoso]

$scope.markers[nombre] = {
lat: latitud,
lng: longitud,
draggable: false
};

it works with:
nombre = 'BB Hotel Granada'

if nombre = 'B&B Hotel Granada' I need nombre = nombre.replace(/&/g, "&"); so
it works with:
nombre = 'B&B Hotel Granada'

But i nombre = 'BB Hotel. Granada' doesn't work

if there is a dot in name doesn't work

Thanks in advance

it is possible to use something like:
Marker (location = [45.5, -122.3], popup = Popup ('Mom & Pop Arrow Shop >>', parse_html = True))
Thank you
