Can someone tell me why this line of code doesn't work for replacing
an ampersand?
$newstring = str_replace("&", "and", $newstring);

Works just fine here. What's in $newstring, both before and after the call?

There is no problem in that particular line. Perhaps the problem is
elsewhere for example in initialization of $newstring ?
What exactly are you trying to do? And what is the content of $newstring?
Maybe a dumb question but are you trying to do this instead?
$newstring = str_replace("&", "&", $newstring);
