How to unescape HTML character entities in Java?

Question

Basically I would like to decode a given Html document, and replace all special chars, such as \" \" -> \" \", \">\" -

Answer 1

In my case i use the replace method by testing every entity in every variable, my code looks like this:

text = text.replace("Ç", "Ç");
text = text.replace("ç", "ç");
text = text.replace("Á", "Á");
text = text.replace("Â", "Â");
text = text.replace("Ã", "Ã");
text = text.replace("É", "É");
text = text.replace("Ê", "Ê");
text = text.replace("Í", "Í");
text = text.replace("Ô", "Ô");
text = text.replace("Õ", "Õ");
text = text.replace("Ó", "Ó");
text = text.replace("Ú", "Ú");
text = text.replace("á", "á");
text = text.replace("â", "â");
text = text.replace("ã", "ã");
text = text.replace("é", "é");
text = text.replace("ê", "ê");
text = text.replace("í", "í");
text = text.replace("ô", "ô");
text = text.replace("õ", "õ");
text = text.replace("ó", "ó");
text = text.replace("ú", "ú");

In my case this worked very well.
