Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.String
A decoded string.

Remarks

Strings that contain HTML-encoded, character-entity equivalents such as < and > are displayed as text, not as HTML code, unless they are decoded.

A browser displays the following as a string of text:

<p> Hello world >/p<

However, if the string is decoded first, the browser displays it as follows and recognizes the paragraph tag:

<p> Hello world </p>
