Package Exports

html-entities
html-entities/lib/xml-entities
html-entities/lib/xml-entities.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (html-entities) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Supports four methods for every class:

encode — encodes, replacing characters to its entity representations. Ignores UTF characters with no entity representation.
encodeNonUTF — encodes, replacing characters to its entity representations. Inserts numeric entities for UTF characters.
encodeNonASCII — encodes, replacing only non-ASCII characters to its numeric entity representations.
decode — decodes, replacing entities to characters. Unknown entities are left as is.
