iOS decode HTML entity to string

I have this code &#21488, it is actually a Chinese character with HTML escape using this site.

I wanted to change from the mentioned code back to Chinese character in the program. I tried out NSString + HTML Link 1 and Link 2. With the method name stringByDecodingHTMLEntities.

They both return the same result, which is &#21488. The actual Chinese character is "台". Kindly advise any method that I can use to convert it.

*Note: I am not really sure whether the term "HTML escape" is correct. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Solution

  • Both link below is working. It is actually my careless mistake for missing out an character.
