使用javascript将重音符号编码为html实体

Question

I would like to convert this text éàè to éàè using javascript.

I tried $('<textarea />').text("éàe").html(); but it doesn't encode the accented characters...

The org.apache.commons.lang3.StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml works correctly in Java, is there an equivalent for javascript ?

If you use ES6, you might be interested in tagged template literals ...

 function htmlentities(raw) { const str = raw[0]; return str.replace(/é/g, 'é') .replace(/à/g, 'à') .replace(/è/g, 'è'); } console.log(htmlentities`éàè`);
