HTML Entities

[mLipok]

Today I was working on some Webservices UDF.
As a result I get this kind of data:

  Quote

<root>
<Data>
<Type>F</Type>
</Data>
</root>

Expand  

I was searching here:

http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/entities/special.html
http://www.html-entities.org/
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_entities.asp

 

But finally I made this:

#include <IE.au3>

_Example()
Func _Example()
    Local $sHTML = _
            '&lt;root&gt;&#xD;&lt;Data&gt;&#xD;&lt;Type&gt;F&lt;/Type&gt;&#xD;&lt;/Data&gt;&#xD;&lt;/root&gt;'
    MsgBox(0, 'TEST', _HTML_DecodeEntities($sHTML))
EndFunc   ;==>_Example


Func _HTML_DecodeEntities(ByRef $sHTML)
    $sHTML = StringReplace($sHTML,'&#xD;','<hr>')
    Local $oIE = _IECreate("about:blank", 0, 0, 1, 0)
    _IEDocWriteHTML($oIE, $sHTML)
    Local $sResult = _IEBodyReadText($oIE)
    _IEQuit($oIE)
    Return $sResult
EndFunc   ;==>_HTML_DecodeEntities
