Uh, yeah, I posted this earlier. It uses nodeValue to escape:
/*decodes any character entities in a string. For example, it converts
"&" to "&". */
function decodeEntities(entityString:String):String
{
var x:XML = new XML("<n>"+entityString+"</n>");
x.parseXML();
return x.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
}
Just send that function your dirty string you got from the XML and it
should come back clean.
