Hi Folks,



I am storing parsed content from XTreams parsing in the XMLElement that Xtreams parsing uses....(could be different from stock Squeak XML package per recent discussion here.)



The XMLElements escape certain characters:  https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEQTP_liberty/com.ibm.websphere.wlp.doc/ae/rwlp_xml_escape.html


To get my content to display properly on Chrome, I have to unescape the escaped XML escaped characters.



I wrote a quick and dirty method to git-r-done....





unEscapeXMLEscapeCharaters: aString
    |xmls|
    xmls := aString copyReplaceAll:'>' with:'>' asTokens:false.
    xmls := xmls copyReplaceAll:'<' with:'<' asTokens:false.            
    xmls := xmls copyReplaceAll:'"e;' with:'"' asTokens:false.                            
    xmls := xmls copyReplaceAll:''' with:'''' asTokens:false.                            
    xmls := xmls copyReplaceAll:'&' with:'&' asTokens:false.
^xmls



However, I have a nagging suspicion I have re-invented the wheel; although I did spend significant time hunting for one.



If anything obvious jumps out, please respond.



thx.
