I can't seem to find the right documentation for this. Apache has an unescapeHtml method and im sure Guava has a similar method.

Needing to "manually" unescape anything is usually a strong sign that you are not using a proper tool/framework that will serve your needs at a higher level. What are you trying to do?

  • I'm extracting metadata from HTML pages with the aid of Jsoup/goose. Do you know of another html parser which can do html entity resolution? – tommy chheng Apr 01 '12 at 15:20

    Try asking a question tagged with 'jsoup' and 'goose', then, explaining what you're *really* trying to do here. That (those?) APIs shouldn't make you bring in another third-party library just to do unescaping, which is something they should be good at. – Kevin Bourrillion May 21 '12 at 14:55
