Question

This is what gets rendered in the html source:

<li>Confirm Password doesn&amp;#39;t match password./li>

On the browser, this is read as: Confirm Password doesn't match password.

This is the code that generates this:

<spring:hasBindErrors name="profileAccount">
  <ul class="errorsList">
    <c:forEach items="${errors.allErrors}" var="error">
      <li><spring:message code="${error.code}"
          text="${error.defaultMessage}"
        /></li>
    </c:forEach>
  </ul>
</spring:hasBindErrors>

How can I prevent the double escaping?

Thanks
