Question

I would like clearly display some text coded in html, at the moment I use this script.

Replace method works but I cannot display the text in a readable format in my case

“Hello!”

Any idea how to solve it?

Thanks

HTML :

   <span class="sp">test</span>

JS :

    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('span.sp').each(function(i) {
            var text = $(this).text();
            var name = text.replace("test", "Hello!");
            $(this).text(name);
        });
    });

Try this:

<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('span.sp').each(function(i) {
        var text = $(this).text();
        var name = text.replace("test", "&#72;&#101;&#108;&#108;&#111;&#33;");
            $(this).html(name);  //added
        });
    });

</script>
