I’m trying to alert Russian text in JavaScript. I have:

<meta charset="UTF-8" />

But what I get is for example: &#1042;&#1072;&#1096; &#1051;&#1086;&#1075;&#1080;&#1085;

What can I do about it?

Here is the code in html:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:asp="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ASPNET/20">

<head id="ctl00_htmlHead"><meta charset="UTF-8" />

…

in the view source html there is 

alert("&#1042;&#1072;&#1096; &#1051;&#1086;&#1075;&#1080;&#1085;");

but in my ascx file there is:

alert("Пароль");

    Try using this:
    http://www.strictly-software.com/scripts/downloads/encoder.js

    and: 

    alert(Encoder.htmlDecode("&#1042;&#1072;&#1096; &#1051;&#1086;&#1075;&#1080;&#1085;"));

    example: http://jsfiddle.net/gMUKY/

    This is encoded in html entities not in javascript utf8 format.
