I read data (e.g. δφόΔΦάηιΰθ"') from my MySQL database which I'd like to
show in an input box.
<?php
$mysql_data = "δφόΔΦάηιΰθ\"'";
$html_data = addslashes(htmlentities($mysql_data, ENT_QUOTES));
echo "<script type = 'text/javascript'>";
echo "function set_old_data() {";
echo "my_form.input1.value = var_old_data;";
echo "}";
echo "var_old_data = '" . $html_data . "';";
echo "</script>";
echo "<body>";
echo "<form name = 'my_form' action = '' method = 'post' accept-charset
= 'iso-8859-1'>";
echo "<input type = 'text' name = 'input1' value = '" . $html_data .
"'>";
echo "<input type = 'button' value = 'Old Data' onClick =
'set_old_data()'>";
echo "</form>";
echo "</body>";
?>
The command
echo "<input type = 'text' name = 'input1' value = '" . $html_data . "'>";
shows my data δφόΔΦάηιΰθ"' in the input box perfect.
But if I click on the button 'Old Data' the Java script function
'set_old_data' shows in the input box
äöüÄÖÜçéàè"'
instead of
δφόΔΦάηιΰθ"'
Therefore I need a Java script function with translates
äöüÄÖÜçéàè"'
to
δφόΔΦάηιΰθ"'
In PHP I could do that with the function
html_entity_decode()
But how can I do it with a Java script?
Stefan
PS: html_entity_decode() is the opposite of htmlentities(). It converts all
HTML entities to their applicable characters from string.
