If you might mean other than programmatically, I have a nifty solution.
 
Here's a great site I use all the time. Very simple. You drop some code in
that it is using HTML entities, and it converts it to the HTML equivalent,
or vice-versa.
 
http://www.stanford.edu/~bsuter/js/convert.html
 
As for the technique he uses, if you wanted to implement it in CFML code,
I'd bet he'd be willing to share it. It's just a guy offering a useful tool
to others. I use it whenever I need to post code (CFML, HTML) into a site
that doesn't handle it for me, or if I ever find code on a site or email
that has been converted and I want to get it back to plain CFML/HTML.
 
Hope that's helpful to others, even if it may not suit Taco's needs.
