title: can i disable output escape in javascript?
body: <p>I realise that the title of this question may be inaccurate but I was wondering how I can use something like in XSLT to clean up characters in Javascript. For example I have a JSON which I use to extract certain information, one of which is a hotel name. The problem is the hotels that have an apostrophe in their names eg george's hotel. When i display this in Chrome or Firefox it works fine however in IE8 it gives me <code>george&amp;apos;s</code>. </p>
  
  <p>My code is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var hotel_title = j.data.hotels[i].title 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Ive tried: </p>
  
  <pre><code>var zz = escape(hotel_title);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>any help would be appreciated.</p>
