我知道我有点晚了，但我认为我可以提供以下片段作为我如何使用jQuery解码HTML实体的示例:

var varTitleE = "Chris' corner";
var varTitleD = $("<div/>").html(varTitleE).text();

console.log(varTitleE + " vs. " + varTitleD);​​​​​​​​​​​

不要忘记启动检查器/firebug以查看控制台结果——或者简单地将console.log(…)替换为/alert(…)

也就是说，以下是我的控制台通过谷歌Chrome检查器读取的内容:

Chris' corner vs. Chris' corner

就像Robert K说的，不要使用jQuery.html().text()来解码html实体，因为这是不安全的，因为用户输入永远不能访问DOM。阅读关于XSS的文章，了解为什么这是不安全的。

相反，尝试使用带有escape和unescape方法的Underscore.js实用带库:

_.escape（string）

转义插入HTML的字符串，替换&，<，>，"，'，和'字符。

_.escape('Curly, Larry & Moe');
=> "Curly, Larry & Moe"

_.unescape（string）

escape的反义词，代替&， &lt;， &gt;， &quot;， &#96;和& # x27;和他们没有逃脱的同伴。

_.unescape('Curly, Larry & Moe');
=> "Curly, Larry & Moe"

要支持解码更多字符，只需复制下划线unescape方法并向映射添加更多字符。

        return HTML_ESC_MAP[x.substring(1,x.length-1)]||x;
    }):s;
}

使用

htmldecode("∑ >€");

我认为这与我们选择的解决方案完全相反。

var decoded = $("<div/>").text(encodedStr).html();

试试吧!

我不建议使用jQuery代码作为答案。虽然它不会将要解码的字符串插入到页面中，但它确实会创建脚本和HTML元素等内容。这代码比我们需要的多。相反，我建议使用更安全、更优化的函数。

var decodeEntities = (function() {
  // this prevents any overhead from creating the object each time
  var element = document.createElement('div');

  function decodeHTMLEntities (str) {
    if(str && typeof str === 'string') {
      // strip script/html tags
      str = str.replace(/<script[^>]*>([\S\s]*?)<\/script>/gmi, '');
      str = str.replace(/<\/?\w(?:[^"'>]|"[^"]*"|'[^']*')*>/gmi, '');
      element.innerHTML = str;
      str = element.textContent;
      element.textContent = '';
    }

    return str;
  }

  return decodeHTMLEntities;
})();

要使用这个函数，只需调用decodeEntities(“&”)，它将使用与jQuery版本相同的底层技术——但是没有jQuery的开销，并且在清除输入中的HTML标记之后。请参阅Mike Samuel关于如何过滤HTML标记的公认答案的评论。

这个函数可以很容易地作为jQuery插件使用，只需在您的项目中添加以下行即可。

jQuery.decodeEntities = decodeEntities;
