title: Encoding conversion from RSS feed chars
body: <p>I am trying to show a simple text RSS feed from a CodePlex project in a window.<br>
  My problem is that the feed text contains a lot of character sequences that looks like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&amp;#58;
  &amp;#45;
  etc..
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I know that they represent the punctuation and some special chars, with some kind of encoding, but I do not know how I can convert them back to simple ascii chars... I mean, without a switch/case covering each special char of course.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you !</p>
  
  <p><strong>Sum-up:</strong> How can I convert <code>"My name is &amp;#58; Aurelien"</code> to <code>"My name is : Aurelien"</code> ?</p>
