I'll try to simplify it, hoping that I'll figure it out, but it's really
very puzzling:
this works perfect:
var encodedDescription = $("#CurrentCartDescription").text();
$("#CurrentCartDescription").html(atob(encodedDescription));
it decodes it back just exactly from what it was encoded.
However, the following is messed up:
$(".EncodedDescriptionField").each( function(index, element ){
var hereWeAre = $(this).text();
var decodedString = atob(hereWeAre);
console.error(hereWeAre);
console.error(decodedString);
});
throws an exception, even for the same very value!
Will simplify it all now, let's see what comes out...
